From the rocky coast of Maine to Cape Hatteras, Florida and the Pacific, a boy named Eric joins the men of the Life-Saving Service and lighthouse stations. Rescues by moonlight, breeches-buoy operations, a ship on fire at sea and a relief expedition with reindeer show the real dangers of the work, with plenty of fact woven into the story.
An exciting, informative tribute to the American life-savers for adventurous young readers. Download the free EPUB.
