Lighthouses of the Southern Atlantic and Gulf States by Linda Osborne Cynowa
The lighthouses and breakwater, pier, and reef lights across Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Texas were captured in postcards and mailed all over the country.
Cape Hatteras, the tallest lighthouse at 198.5 feet, is located on Hatteras Island in the Outer Banks of North Carolina and protected one of the most hazardous parts of the Atlantic coast. Lighthouses have been integral to the navigational needs of maritime traffic, and today, many are tended by associations and historical societies dedicated to preservation.
Linda Osborne Cynowa has loved lighthouses for years. With a lifelong love of history and a background in photography, she has always enjoyed visiting as well as photographing them. Her previous publications with Arcadia Publishing include Washington Township, Macomb Township, Farming in Northern Macomb County, Lighthouses and Lifesaving on the Great Lakes, Lighthouses of the North Atlantic Coast, and Lighthouses of the Pacific Coast.
