For more than half a century Isaac Small served as marine reporting agent at Highland Light, watching ships come to grief on the outer shore of Cape Cod. He recounts the losses of the Josephus, the Jason, the Peruvian, the Giovanni and many more, with the life-saving crews who went out into the surf and did not always return.

A first-hand record of the treacherous shoals off the Cape, for anyone drawn to maritime history or New England. Download the free EPUB.
