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. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eGreater Boston's Blizzard of 1978\u003c\/i\u003e is illustrated with approximately 200 photographs from government archives and private collections and is told by author Alan R.
