8456. Noble, Dennis L. LIFEBOAT SAILORS – Inside The U. S. Coast Guard’s Small Boat Stations. Washington, DC. 2000. 231p. Hardcover 6×9. DJ. This is the first book on the distinguished past, hazardous present, and uncertain future of an organization whose roots extend back nearly 200 years. Retired Coast Guardsman and noted author Dennis Noble traveled from unit to unit capturing the stories of their brave crews, riding the waves with the lifeboat sailors who came to accept him as one of their own. This book serves as a tribute to the crews of the U. S. Coast Guard small boat stations and their efforts to save the lives of those in peril. The book also offers a perspective into the Coast Guard’s management of its stations and raises concern for the future. A thrilling account, well illustrated with photographs.
