A frigate is a ship, and the way she uses it in the context, "There is no frigate like a book
To take us lands away,..." would mean that a book takes you away on a sort of intellectual journey. That's my take anyway.

Richard K is correct
tell the truth did you look up the word frigate?
have you never been so engrossed in a book that you almost felt you were in the story? Sometimes I don't hear people talking to me if I'm at a good part.
It happened with a teacher once in 5th grade. It was bad.:)

a frigate is a type of ship, ships take you on trips, books take you on trips so a book is a type of ship that will take you on a trip.......
