Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From the Author
Presented in the same format as my first book, Maine "Lighthouses A Pictorial Guide," this guide to the lighthouses of Massachusetts is a sequel of sorts. The same presentation again offers a complete visual tour of each location with concise but complete description, history and legend for each lighthouse. Accurate directions accompanied by a small, readable map make finding the lights much easier. And for those who can't get to every lighthouse in Massachusetts, this book takes you there with images. As a practical guide for travel, reference, souvenir or coffee table gift, this book will please anyone who loves Massachusetts, lighthouses and the coast.

This review is from: Massachusetts Lighthouses: A Pictorial Guide (Paperback)
This book is an excellent resource to take on the road with you to Massachusetts.! Great pictures with easy to follow directions. I personally used it on a trip last summer and saw most of the lights in the book! Highly recommended.

This review is from: Massachusetts Lighthouses: A Pictorial Guide (Hardcover)
This book contains lots of color pictures as well as histories and travel directions. I found it extremely useful as a guidebook and it has made a nice souvenier of a recent trip to some of the lights featured.
