lynni said a great book for a coffee table if you like lighthouses. not quite the book I was looking for. but, a great book for a coffee table if you like lighthouses !!. "Fantastic Book" according to V. Tracy. This was a very good book.I got it for a gift, but decided to read it first.We had just visited the Oregon Lighthouses.One thing I found, that the author didn't do, was as he was writing up the stories he didn't say where each Lighthouse was located.(on most) But in the back of the book he has all the locations and information etc.It would have b. "Lighthouses of the Pacific Coast." according to C Hudspa. Very informative and helpful before our trip to Oregon. I recommend this book if you love lighthouses! This book not only gives informative information but it lets you know how to get there and where the light houses are located. I recommend this book.
