Maine Lighthouses Hardback
by Down East Books
Hardback
Description
Long known for both its ship building and sailing history and its rocky coast, Maine is also known for its lighthouses, which have long warned ships away from inshore ledges and islands.
Maine has 64 lighthouses, the second highest number of any state (only Michigan has more), and these beacons are a fascinating part of the state's maritime and cultural history.
This definitive guide to every one of Maine's beacons is filled with color photographs, history, lore, and interesting facts.
Clear directions and maps will help you find your way, and each entry is rounded out with basic statistics on size, color and frequency of the beacon, whether the lighthouse is open to the public, and when it is open for visits.
