This profusely illustrated book tells the story of Cape Cod's lighthouses like no other. Admont Clark notes all the physical facts -- when and where each lighthouse was built, the type and range of each light, etc. But it is his emphasis on stories of the people who lived and worked in the lighthouses that makes this book so enjoyable. Readers are infused with a sense of daily life at each lighthouse, while also reading the extraordinary events that make their histories.
