Lighthouses of the Pacific Coast by Randy Leffingwell

Lighthouses of the Pacific Coast by Randy Leffingwell

Once beckoning to ocean-weary sailors, the lighthouses of the Pacific Coast still stand as beacons to adventurous travelers. Let this beautifully illustrated book conduct you to these classic lighthouses and treat you the fascinating stories behind these picturesque structures and the keepers who served in them. Along with the history of the lighthouses development and service, the book also delves into their technological evolution, with special attention to the architecture, the actual lights and lenses, and todays movement to preserve and restore them. A breathtaking and edifying tour page by page, the book is also an ideal, informative guide for those who wish to venture into the living history of these coastal lighthouses.

Randy Leffingwell wrote his first book, American Muscle, in 1989 while still on staff at the Los Angeles Times.
