5.0 out of 5 stars This book is a must for visiting Michigan lighthouses., October 3, 1998

Prior to a vacation to the great state of Michigan in search of lighthouses, we purchased this book from Amazon. It was THE BEST tour guide! The directions were invaluable and the history behind each of these beautiful lights was a bonus. I would definitely recommend this book if taking a trip to visit the lights of the Great Lakes.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great traveling companion, January 9, 2000

By	Jeffrey Frick (Flint, Michigan, USA) - See all my reviews

I am a freelance photographer that travels the State of Michigan. This book is by my side when I plan trips and when on the road. It is organized logically in a trip around the state. Each light has a complete and detailed map and distances are almost always correct

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book...., January 19, 2002

By	Bryan Penberthy "penberth" (Wheatfield, NY United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Just this past May (2001), I toured to most of Lower Michigan's lighthouses. Starting in St. Joseph and traveling north to Old Mackinac, then up to Whitefish Point in the UP, then back down in the Lower Peninsula. Once in the Lower Peninsula, we followed Lake Huron south to Marine City and then crossed over into Canada for our trip back to Buffalo. All I can say is...WHAT A GREAT BOOK. The biggest thing that I like about it is it includes directions to each light. What a concept. This book, coupled with my Garmin Streetpilot GPS unit got us everywhere we wanted to go without guessing. All together, we visited about 44 lighthouses and took over 30 rolls of film. ...
