- Harrison, Tim and Ray Jones. LOST LIGHTHOUSES – Stories and Images of America’s Vanished Lighthouses. Globe Pequot. 1999. 128p. Soft wraps. 125 vintage photographs. Destroyed by storms, eaten away by erosion, or simply tom down to make way for the future, almost 1,000 of America’s lighthouses have had their beacons snuffed out. But these venerable structures live on in the memories of mariners, coastal natives, and lighthouse aficionados. Through dramatic photos from the collection of Lighthouse Digest editor Tim Harrison and the storytelling flair of respected author Ray Jones, Lost Lighthouses celebrates 180 of these beloved phantom towers, with stories from their “lives” and accounts of their destruction. Victims of war, government decisions, or the forces of nature, these lights are presented geographically and represent all of America’s coastal regions. Authoritative, engaging, and illustrated with rare images, this book will make a welcome addition to the library of any lighthouse lover or history buff. (M). $24.95.
