The great blizzard of 1978 is an event seared in the memory of
anyone who lived through it. Most of Greater Boston was quickly
overwhelmed by the storm, which shut down all forms of transit,
stranded thousands of cars and motorists along Route 128, and
virtually shut down most of the state for a week. But for many
coastal communities, the impact of the storm, which brought record
high tides and pounding surf, was pure devastation. The common
thread shared by almost everyone in the region was positive
memories of neighbors and strangers helping each 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 those who were there and those who
can only imagine.
