Wave-Swept Lighthouses of New England

More about the book

Focusing on the engineering marvels of 19th-century lighthouses, this collection features vintage-photograph postcards of notable structures in New England, including Whaleback, Saddleback Ledge, and Minot's Ledge. These lighthouses not only showcase architectural ingenuity but also honor the dedication of the lighthouse keepers who maintained them through challenging conditions before the advent of automation. Each postcard serves as a reminder of the rich history and human effort behind these iconic maritime beacons.
