Lighthouses have always been a fascination for my father and I. This book has great pictures and is a perfect start for lighthouse lovers. You'll get to read about the history into some of the more popular light houses. Enjoyed the historical building, refurbishing, or rebuilding dates and information. Also provides some handy travel information to the locations.
