Edward Rowe Snow was born in Winthrop, Massachusetts, being descended from sea captains, with one exception, for four generations back on both sides of his family. He sailed the ocean highways as a seaman in the forecastle, was an 'extra' in Hollywood, played football and ran track in college, obtained his A.B. at Harvard and his A.M. at Boston University.
Enlisting in the air corps at the outbreak of World War II, he was in the African Invasion, where he was wounded and invalided back to England, returning later to America and receiving an honorable discharge. Throughout his unusual career, his paramount interest was the study of the lighthouses, islands, ledges, and shore line around the Boston Bay and the New England Coast.
Pirates and Buccaneers of the Atlantic Coast was published in 1944.
