26203. Furst, Glenn C. [stepson of the Keeper of North Manitou Light Station]. MY POINT OF VIEW. Np. 1992. 121p. Soft wraps. Signed by the author. Illustrated with photographs. An engaging memoir of the author’s youth growing up on North Manitou Island, Michigan, during the nine years (1919-1928) that his stepfather was employed as the lighthouse keeper at North Manitou Light Station on Dimmick’s Point on Lake Michigan. In 1928, the family was transferred to the South Manitou Station. Privately published in 1992 this soft cover volume, almost certainly the first and only edition, I found to be extremely interesting in its details of every day life. a rare glimpse into a place and time otherwise largely lost to history. Clean, tight, nice copy and the first that I have ever found. (VG+). $88.
