22367. LIGHTHOUSE KEEPER AT THE END OF WEST. 1935
22367. Willoughby, Barrett. LIGHTHOUSE KEEPER AT THE END OF WEST. Saturday Evening Post. January 26, 1935.4 p. Lengthy article relates interview with Head Keeper Ted Pedersen at the Cape Sarichef Lighthouse in Alaska. The Cape Sarichef Lighthouse is in the Aleutian chain of islands and is the most western lighthouse on the two American Continents. The light station clings to the cliffs in the island of Unimak and with four active volcanoes visible in the area, life here was a considerable challenge. The interview provides considerable detail into the day-to-day operations and the efforts of the keepers just to live in this remote outpost. Quite interesting, illustrated with photographs. Full issue. (VG). $22.
