Hull's geography and powerful ties to the sea demand that people engage in certain maritime occupations, the hardship of which few outside the town can fully grasp. Within its small population can be found lobstermen, harbormasters, some of the bravest Coast Guardsmen in the country and more. What do these people do on a daily basis? Award-winning author John Galluzzo samples a day in the life of these extraordinary citizens to find out.
