Sarah by TOM SALMON
Narrated by June Barrie
The turn of the century and a violent storm hits the south west of England. During the night a rescue flare is seen, but the life-boat cannot be launched in such heavy seas. Then the coxswain makes a historic decision; 20 brave men will attempt to carry the two-ton boat across wild country to a sheltered bay.
