Much of the Coast Guard’s rich history took place along and within the waters of the 1st Coast Guard District based in Boston, Mass. The photographs in this book were collected by 1st Coast Guard District Public Affairs crews during a year-long effort covering eight states and more than 3,000 miles of travel. Photographers got underway, woke before dawn, waited in snowstorms, coordinated reunions, braved rising tides, and slept on islands to create a collection of images worth finding their own way into Coast Guard history.
So secure for sea, cast off all lines, and make preparations to get underway for your voyage through Coast Guard history in the Northeast, where it all began.
