The courage\, skill\, and selfless se rvice demonstrated that day reflect the traditions shared by mariners ever ywhere\, including those who have worked and lived on the Great Lakes for generations. \nThe Greatest Maritime Evacuation: September 11\, 2001 explo res this remarkable rescue 25 years later through the experiences of four very different vessels: a U.S. Coast Guard cutter\, a harbor tugboat\, a p assenger vessel\, and a privately owned boat. Through powerful photographs and firsthand accounts\, discover how professional mariners and everyday citizens worked together to bring hundreds of thousands of people to safet y.
