Synopsis
Living in a lighthouse was a way of life for the families of more than 5,000 keepers and employees of the United States Lighthouse Service.
The government agency that built and staffed these lights no longer exists. But the lighthouses do. And so do many of the children, now elderly, who grew up in them.
In this remarkable book, Cheryl Shelton-Roberts and her husband, Bruce, travel the North American continent telling the stories of America's lighthouses and their keepers in words and vintage family photos, as well as new photography.
