About this title

From the Publisher:

What started as a personal goal to photograph each lighthouse in Maine turned into a successful publication and is in its sixth year and Third Edition. This book represents the most comprehensive presentation of Maine lighthouses available.

From the Author:

What started out as a personal challenge to visit and photograph every lighthouse in Maine turned into a career change from healthcare to photography and publishing. My intent is to present a complete visual tour of each location with a concise but complete description, history and legend for each lighthouse. Many wrong turns and countless detours I took along the way prompted me to include a small, readable map and accurate directions to each light. The Second Edition offers more images, expanded narrative material and the addition of historic postcard reproductions. For those who can't get to every lighthouse in Maine, this book will visually take you there. As a practical guide for travel, reference, souvenir or coffee table gift, this book will please anyone who loves Maine, lighthouses and the coast.
