Description

The great blizzard of 1978 is an event seared in the memory of any individual who lived through it. Most of Greater Boston was once quickly overwhelmed by the storm, which shut down all sorts of transit, stranded thousands of cars and motorists along Route 128, and virtually shut down many of the state for a week. But for lots of coastal communities, the affect of the storm, which brought record high tides and pounding surf, was once pure devastation. The common thread shared by almost everyone in the region was once positive memories of neighbors and strangers helping every other and finding new bonds of community. Greater Boston’s Blizzard of 1978, illustrated with approximately 200 photographs from government archives and private collections, brings alive the fading experiences of February 1978 for many who were there and those that can only consider.
