Southeastern Lighthouses‎ book

Southeastern Lighthouse Standing guard over the long, graceful coastline that stretches between the North Carolina Outer Banks and the southern tip of Florida are stone, brick, concrete, and metal sentinels - stately lighthouses whose tall towers serve as daymarks and whose intense beacons provide guidance at night to the ships of all sizes that ply these shores for pleasure and profit. Ship-killing shoals, shallows, and hurricanes lie in wait to thwart the missions of these vessels and have given the surf off these shores the nickname 'the Graveyard of the Atlantic.' Southeastern Lighthouses tells the fascinating stories of this region's most important and historic lighthouses and the wrecks and heroes they have seen.
