Synopsis
Most people familiar with the name Bernie Webber associate him with the miraculous rescue of 32 men off of the stern of the Pendleton, made famous in the book and movie The Finest Hours. Rescuing 32 sailors from a sinking ship caught in a ferocious winter storm is a dramatic tale, but what made this mission so special is that the boat Bernie skippered that terrible night was a mere 36 feet in length and the waves were almost twice that size! Bernie and crew received the Coast Guard's coveted Gold Lifesaving Medal, and what they did on that stormy night is regarded as the greatest small boat rescue in history. In Into A Raging Sea, Bernie tells that story, but the book is so much more than that. In these pages you'll read about rescue attempts that did not turn out well, stories of fishermen from a time long past, rescues done with the by-gone technique of the "breeches buoy," humorous anecdotes, and what Cape Cod and its people meant to Bernie. Into a Raging Sea is a story of sacrifice, bravery, disappointment, and challenges. And in the background of Bernie's journey is one constant, the sea. --from the forward by Michael J.

    Better than the movie "The Finest Hours."

    This is a reprint of Bernie Webber's 1984 "Chatham: The Lifeboatmen," with some added notes. It is a great read by the Coastie who lived the event. Two other books, "Two Tankers Down," and "The Finest Hours" make a great trilogy about this event. By reading all three, in quick succession, it will give the reader an excellent impression of what the old "Life Saving Service" of the U. S. Coast Guard was all about. Too many times readers are left to compare historical events with only images of modern technology for a reference point. This was from the days of wooden boats, no helicopters to rely on, primitive, by present standards, life-saving equipment, and doing one's duty because it was expected of you. Fifty years ago, when I was in the Coast Guard, that "unofficial" motto, "You ...
