America is a wide and diverse country, with citizens living in literally in the midst of everything from red rock canyons to ice floes and igloos. The Landmarks series pays homage to several of our most recognized and beloved landmarks, symbols of the American spirit. From rustic country barns to stoic lighthouses and Ellis Island, the first taste of America for so many of our ancestors, these symbols of our heritage are shown in beautiful photographs that bring alive their magic.
this book is one of the best lighthouse books I have ever read. The pictures are excellent and includes many lovely poems and comments about lighthouses and the delight people find in them. Included is a short part of Walt Whitman's "I must go down to the sea again. If you are a lighthouse lover, this book will fill you with a desire to get into your car and drive to the nearest lighthouse around.
