About this title

Synopsis

Small, Isaac M. Shipwrecks on Cape Cod: Highlands-Coast of Cape Cod Massachusetts. Old Greenwich, CT: The Chatham Press, 1928. 27-31 Isaac M. Small was for sixty years the marine reporting agent for the Boston Chamber of Commerce. It was his job to notify the Boston office, via telegraph, which ships were passing Highland Light in Truro on their way to Boston. The author’s short chapter on the SS Portland disaster provides a first person account of the storm, the wreckage that washed ashore, and the difficulty that the Life Savers encountered in pulling the Portland’s passenger’s lifeless bodies from the surf.
