About this product
Product Information
In 1861, Amelia Martin's father is stripped of his post as a ship's captain when he is caught harboring the leader of a slave rebellion. Now he is an assistant lighthouse keeper on Fenwick Island, off the coast of Delaware-a state wedged between the North and the South, just as Amelia is wedged between her constantly arguing parents. Amelia's mother blames her abolitionist husband for their living conditions, which she claims are taking a toll on her health. As the Civil War rages on, Amelia slowly learns that she cannot stop the fighting, but by keeping watch in the lighthouse each day, lighting the lamps, cleaning the glass, and rescuing victims of Atlantic storms, she can make a difference.

Absolutely the best sellers! I realized I had ordered one adorable snowman plate instead of two so I tried contacting the seller. Immediately the seller grabbed the package from the mail and repackaged the two plates then actually drove to Omaha for a speedier delivery.
I received the perfectly wrapped package before Thanksgiving and couldn’t be happier. Even received a credit for shipping.
Honestly with their messages and updates I felt like I was purchasing from friends. Really the best!
