5174. Lincoln , Joseph C., RUGGED WATER. New York . 1924
5174g. Lincoln , Joseph C., RUGGED WATER. New York . 1924. 385p. DJ. Hard bound. A gripping, fictional account by one of Cape Cods ‘ most noted writers of the Life-Saving Service on the outer Cape . The “Setucket”Life-Saving Station is left in the charge of Calvin Homer. A raging storm proves that the right man was at the head of the crew when, under Homer’s command, all those stranded on a vessel were saved. Later Homer would be made Number One man. This account appears to be the Monomoy Point Station as the basis for the story, with a good account of the day to day as well as rescue activity. Clean, light age toning, tight, in gilt embossed sunned binding and in original [though many chips and portion of spine missing] dust jacket. Quite rare to find this title with its dust wrap. (VG). $32.
