Reviews"Lighthouse lovers everywhere will welcome this new fact-filled resource. As reminders of a rich maritime heritage, lighthouses need and deserve our help. This book will attract many new recruits to the cause of lighthouse preservation worldwide." --Rosalie Davis Gibb, Chairman of the World Lighthouse Society, " The Lighthouse Encyclopedia is more than a complete guide to those magnificent towers of light. It is a remarkable work of literature filled with the vast spirit and endless mystery of great waters and those who work upon them. For all of us who love lighthouses and their keepers, this is a book to be read and savored, each page as bright as the spokes of light that yet flash across the sea to guide mariners home." --Homer Hickam, author of October Sky and The Keeper's Son
