- Harrison, Tim and Ray Jones. ENDANGERED LIGHTHOUSES – The Plight of 60 American Lights and the Efforts Being Made to Save Them. Globe Pequot. 2000. 96p. Soft wraps. Over the last 100 years, many American lighthouses have been lost – destroyed by the forces of nature and those of mankind. 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. With each light that burns out, we loose more of our country’s treasured maritime history. A number of organizations throughout the country are working to save other lighthouses from the same fate. Endangered Lighthouses tells the stories of sixty American lighthouses in peril including their history, the dangers they face, and the efforts that are being made to save them. Illustrated with both vintage images and modern color images, this book will make a welcome addition to the library of any lighthouse lover or history buff. (M). $24.95.
