From the author of 25 Awesome Facts about the Coast Guard and creator The Claw of Knowledge comes this long-awaited collection of unbelievable tales about the world's greatest Coast Guard (the American one). This is not the Coast Guard you know (assuming you know it at all).
Fifteen ships, fifteen epic stories.
Follow the Coast Guard as it battles storms, fights pirates, sinks subs, and explores new continents. Watch our cutters save lives, catch spies, and change the world. Ranging from the Arctic to the Antarctic, from the Caribbean to the Kara Sea, and spanning over 230 years, this book seeks to tell long-forgotten tales from the Coast Guard's past and tell them with humor, history, and pictures of ships wearing hats. These are stories you won't find anywhere else, not even Wikipedia.
Read about the cutter that kicked the Nazis out of Greenland. Read about the one that beat the last pirates on American soil. Read about the one that probably started the Civil War. Or just look at the pictures. I won't judge.
