Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Annual Report of the United States Life-Saving Service for the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 1905
A similar recital of the circumstances connected with disasters unat tended by fatality would be equally instructive and replete with thrilling incidents. Since the general extension of the Service, how ever, to nearly all the most dangerous portions of the coast, sea and lake, the number of disasters at which the life-saving crews render service has become so great that it is not practicable to more than concisely state the leading features of each case in tabular form, as is done elsewhere in this volume under the caption Services of Crews.
