註釋Ranging from Maine's Portland Head to Drum Point Light in the Chesapeake Bay and Sabine Pass in the Gulf of Mexico, from the lighthouses on Washington's Olympic Peninsula to those off San Diego and in the Midwest's Great Lakes, this book creates a new awareness of America's historic lights and the men and women who kept them. Many of the nation's lighthouses are included, seven in great detail, along with a summary of the development of the Lighthouse Service from 1789 onward. The work is as rich in historical information as it is in rarely seen photographs, and the reader can determine exact locations using the fourteen maps supplied.
