Retreive Items from SharePoint list using c# client object model

Question

I am trying to retrieve the Author and Editor column values of a sharePoint list using C#(SharePoint client object model). Instead of displaying the value of Author field, it is getting displayed as Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.FieldUservalue. I am trying to retrieve as ListItem["Fieldname"]. Also please suggest how to retrieve the PermMask column value.

CamlQuery query = CamlQuery.CreateAllItemsQuery();
ListeItemCollection col =List.getItems(query); 
clientcontext.Load(col);
clientcontext.ExecuteQuery(); 
foreach (ListItem item in col) 
    console.writeline(item["Author"]);

Thank You

Right now am using as - CamlQuery query = CamlQuery.CreateAllItemsQuery();ListeItemCollection col =List.getItems(query); clientcontext.Load(col);clientcontext.ExecuteQuery(); foreach (ListItem item in col) console.writeline(item["Author"]); — user38433

If you want to retrieve information about a specific field, use the Fields.GetByInternalNameOrTitle method. The return type of this method is Field.

ClientContext context = new ClientContext("http://SiteUrl"); 
    SP.List list = context.Web.Lists.GetByTitle("Shared Documents"); 
    SP.Field field = list.Fields.GetByInternalNameOrTitle("Title"); 
    FieldText textField = context.CastTo<FieldText>(field); 
    context.Load(textField); 
    context.ExecuteQuery(); 
    // You can access the specific text field properties. 
    label1.Text = textField.MaxLength;
