America's Lighthouses: An Illustrated History (Dover… por Francis Ross Holland Jr.
This was a very interesting book, particularly the photos. I learned a lot about lighthouses and their history and how they are managed in the US. The descriptions became somewhat repetitive in describing the erosion and trials and tribulations of keepers, but overall it was worth reading if you love lighthouses like I do.
