Editorial Reviews

The romance and mystery of the seas has long captured the hearts of people from all walks of life. The stoic symbol of this passion is lighthouses. Relive ghost stories, shipwrecks and heroic deeds. You will feel the salt spray and face the terror of a storm on the high seas as you enjoy this beautifully photographed history of lighthouses along America’s coast. A must-see video for lighthouse aficionados and the lovers of history.

4.0 out of 5 stars Nice source of information, September 25, 2006

This review is from: Lighthouses of North America (DVD)

Although the production is very segmented, and gives the impression of many short pieces spliced together, it is overall enjoyable. I do agree with the prior reviewer that there are more people on screen than the lighthouses, but Wayne Wheeler, who is the recently retired director for the United States Lighthouse Society, is an engaging speaker with an abundance if knoweledge. Some of the information is a little dated, but history rarely changes. Though not a smooth flowing piece, it is a very useful historical production.

As its producer and director, this is a work I would call one of my most intimate. I believe you will thoroughly enjoy this program for all its historical detail and majesty. The latest DVD edition is recommended for the best viewing experience.
