Hardcover. Condición: Very Good. Hardcover. 8vo. Published by Dept. Of Transportation, U. S. Coast Guard, U. S. Government Printing Office, Washington, DC. 1976. 98 pgs. Illustrated. Bound in cloth boards with titles present to the spine and front board. Boards have light shelf-wear present to the extremities. No ownership marks present. Text is clean and free of marks. Binding tight and solid. From the Foreword: IF MAN WERE PRESUMPTIOUS as to expect that the Almighty would evidence in a visible warning the awful power of His wrath, we mortals might find no more terrifying a sight than to watch as the seas of an Atlantic storm break their enormous energy upon the sands of a coastal beach. All the more terrible to consider is the fate of a vessel and its occupants wrecked upon the shoals off such a beach in the midst of such a storm. Over a century ago a plan to alleviate the consequences of such shipwrecks was brought forth by a medical doctor, named Newell, who was then serving as a member of the U. S. House of Representatives. The doctor's plan, by no means the result of his own thoughts and efforts alone, was enacted into law on August 14, 1848. This statute opened the way for the Federal Government to become involved in the business of rescuing persons from the horrible and disastrous shipwrecks then commonplace occurrences along the coastline, and particularly along the approaches to New York. Newell's legislation, made in the name of humanity, laid the cornerstone for the development of an elaborate and widespread system of coastal rescue stations. These stations and their surfman crews would one day constitute the United States Life-Saving Service; and later, in 1915, would become part of a newly founded United States Coast Guard. Little is known of the origins, successes, and failures of these first efforts in federal lifesaving. In the pages that follow, however, we might derive the basis for a great national pride. It was during the years 1848 through 1870 that the voluntary efforts of private citizens, amidst a background of civil dissension and turbulence, saved countless thousands of lives from shipwreck. To help them, they had native experience, abundant courage, and some token federal assistance in the form of. SURFBOATS, ROCKETS, AND CARRONADES. This is the story of those first rescue stations.
