Book summaryThe true story of the building of lighthouses along the Scottish coast during the 18th and 19th centuries. Numerous shipwrecks led to the necessary construction of several lighthouses--no easy feat on a rocky shoreline--by members of writer Robert Louis Stevenson's family. These men, including Stevenson's grandfather, were known as the "Lighthouse Stevensons." Media reviews"...[W]e can only applaud Bathurst for giving us history as intriguing and illuminating as a Fresnel lens." |
