Not worth the money, use the website instead,

This review is from: 21st Century Complete Guide to the U.S. Coast Guard: Current Events, News, Homeland Security, Immigration, Vessels, Aircraft, Lighthouses, Polar Icebreaking, History, At War, and Safety (CD-ROM)
Reading the description this sounded like a wonderful reference. Unfortunately once I started delving into it I found that this publication was basically a download of the Coast Guard website...that had been turned into a PDF file. It was full of missing images, extremely poor page layout, broken links, and some of the information was years out of date. It even included web pages saying that the requested pages were not available. Hardly a complete guide and definitely not a useful reference.

Worthless Waste of Money,

This "book" is nothing more than a CD-ROM of U.S. Coast Guard website information - - much of it with missing images and informaton. Everything in this CD is publicly available on the Coast Guard website and it is much easier to access and read via the website than it is here. This CD is utterly and completely worthless in my view given that the information is free and available [on a website].

Serves me right for not reading the reviews before buying. This is a [...] and should be taken off the market. I would think the Coast Guard out raged to find this "book" for sale. I returned mine with in an hour of down loading it. All the information is high-jacked from the website [...] I hope I get a full refund.

A waste! Lots of information but it's very hard to navigate through. Use the internet, this disk is just a colletion of USCG webpages.
