The Little Red Lighthouse and the Great Gray Bridge. This item is unavailable.The Little Red Lighthouse and the Great Gray Bridge

Lighthouses have guided sailors, adventurers, and dreamers throughout the world for centuries. And a very important lighthouse stands tucked beneath the great gray span of the George Washington Bridge on the Hudson River.

"Told in the age-old rhythmic style of folklore, this story of modern times is unusually successful."--Saturday Review
