This map and guide covers lights in both MA and NH. In June of 2000 I used this map to visit Lighthouses in MA & NH. This map was very useful. On one side is a map pointing out the locations. On the other side there are details for each individual light such as: directions, hours, and phone numbers. I am from Michigan so I was not familiar with New England at all. Some of these lights were hard to find even with the map because some roads are not clearly marked. But I did find everything I was looking for. The price of these maps is an incredible bargain. Some people buy two of them so they can hang one on the wall to display the watercolor images and get another to use.

This was a great resource in locating lighthouses - compact, yet gives specific directions on which lighthouses could be visited and how to get there. Very nice layout, design, pictures, etc.

No traveller in search of Massachusetts' lighthouses should be without this extremely useful map. Beautiful watercolor illustrations too!

On medium-weight, semi-glossy paper, this beautiful and durable map folds out to approximately 2 feet by 3. On one side is a three-color highway map of the coasts of Massachusetts and New Hampshire, inlaid with paragraphs on several of the lighthouses and framed by watercolor pictures of each. The reverse side describes all 50 Massachusetts lighthouses, standing or not, and both New Hampshire's. The descriptions give a short history, the optimal viewing spot, directions, contact information, hours of operation, transportation options, etc.

If you are interested in lighthouses, Massachusetts or New Hampshire, shipping or maps, you will probably love this great map. Travellers will find it indispensable. What a bargain!

It made it very easy to find where the lighthouses are located and a nice article on each one.
