Synopsis: |
Although the US Coast Guard enjoys a reputation as one of the best maritime rescue services in the world, details of its heroic history are lesser known. This fascinating book highlights dramatic rescues carried out from shore-based Coast Guard stations and aircraft and patrol boats since the end of the nineteenth century. Everyone who enjoys man-against-the-sea stories will appreciate Noble's work and maritime-rescue specialists and historians will be drawn to the author's overview of the developments in equipment and the array of aircraft used by Coast Guard lifesavers. |
