23437. Stieve, Jeanette. THE HARBOR LIGHT 1872-1940. South Haven. 2003
- Stieve, Jeanette. THE HARBOR LIGHT 1872-1940. South Haven. 2003. 70 p. Soft wraps. Drawing on the keeper’s logs and journals and newspapers of the day, the author has put together a most unusual account of the joys and sorrows of the light keepers and their families at South Haven’s Harbor Lighthouse. The journals are remarkable in their detail and the many early newspaper accounts add greatly to the readers overall view. Quite interesting is the tragic account of Keeper De Deimmar who was killed when struck by the in-coming Fruit Belt train. Includes details of the inspections, US Signal Service work, lighthouse tenders and much more. (M). $18.95.
