Lighthouse Families

The adventures of 13 families who have dedicated their lives to protecting America's waterways are recorded in this illustrated history. Attacked by Native Americans, shot at from land and sea, battered by hurricanes, placed under the care of stingy and dishonest bureaucrats, and abandoned as relics, the families in this recollection share the stories of how they have saved thousands of lives amidst natural and societal foes. The featured lighthouses are located in such areas as Cape Flattery, Washington; Cape Hatteras, North Carolina; Old Mackinac, Michigan; and St Augustine, Florida. Each chapter includes one or two family recipes.
