Summary "The Wireless Operator—With the U.S. Coast Guard" by Lewis E. Theiss is an adventure novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows Henry Harper, a determined young man embarking on a quest for employment while navigating the challenges of life in New York City and eventually finding himself aboard a Coast Guard cutter. The opening chapters set the stage for his journey, highlighting both the bustling environment of the city and the daunting realities of seeking one's fortune. At the start of the narrative, Henry arrives in New York with high hopes of reuniting with his friends and securing a job, only to find himself alone and without resources. After an unfortunate accident that sees him falling overboard, he is rescued by the crew of the Coast Guard cutter "Iroquois", leading to further opportunities on the ship. Through his experiences, the opening portion introduces themes of bravery, friendship, and the noble service of the Coast Guard as Henry begins to discover his place in the world amidst camaraderie and the call of adventure.
