Somewhat forgotten lighthouse
Published by Karen , 1 year ago
I enjoyed this book very much. However I bought it because where I grew up there was an historic lighthouse which was mentioned but only briefly. No picture no story. It Is The Point Gratiot Lighthouse in Dunkirk New York. Erected in 1875 replacing an earlier lighthouse built in 1826. The High Victorian Gothic keeper’s dwelling built in 1875. It very lovely and would have been a great addition to this book.

This book is not just about bricks and cement but the men and women who worked at the lighthouses and their children and life experiences. An excellent and complete book about history of lighthouses in the Great Lakes.
