| Lighthouses of the Atlantic. | Plisson Philip &Guillaume & Charles Daniel . | Cassell & Co. | |
| Synopsis. 'Lighthouses of the Atlantic' is a remarkable pictorial inventory of the lighthouses which protect the coasts of England, Ireland, Scotland, Wales, Cornwall, France, Spain, and Portugal. Lighthouses have always captured the imagination of sailors and land dwellers alike. The world's first lighthouse on the island of Pharos in the Bay of Alexandria was one of the seven wonders of the world, but it was hundreds of years latter, on the rugged Atlantic coastlines which stretch from the Shetlands to Gibraltar, that the technique of building the most solid towers was perfected. Each lighthouse has its own character, and each of the 140 photographed in this book has played a significant role in the history and often the legends of the area. Philip Plisson And Guillaume Plisson's photographs show the physical setting of each lighthouse and often the interiors and portraits of the men who, as automation arrives, will be the last operators. David Charles tells the story of each lighthouse and the maritime activities around them. There is a wealth of pracitial and statistical information given together with a listing of lighthouse museums. | |||
