Last year Kay and I began assembling a list of non-fiction books related to lighthouses, lightships, lighthouse keepers, etc. These books cover all kinds of subjects, but the common thread is that they are all about lighthouses in some way. What we are currently trying to add to the list are publications that may be available only at local lighthouse gift shops or at shops in towns near to a lighthouse, lightship, or life saving station. If you know of a good publication (pictorial, travel guide, local history book, history of a light, etc.) that does not appear on the list below please add to this thread with the information as to the publication's title and where it can be found. Digging through lighthouse gift shops and old book stores has become, in the last year, an interesting adjunct to our lighthousing trips and one we hope to continue in the future. I copied this list from an Excel spreadsheet so I hope the formatting doesn't get too messed up in the translation.

That is a lot of books and to answer Bob's question, no, we don't own them all. At this point we have a little over a third of the list actually on the bookshelves. The remainder is a "hit" list of future birthday, Christmas, and anniversary presents. By the time we complete the list we'll no doubt have more bookshelve units than curio cabinets ... and that's pretty scary!

Here's one to add:
"Lake Champlain Lighthouses" published by and available from the Clinton County (NY) Historical Association, 518-565-4749.
This is a small 32 page booklet with write-ups on the 10 lighthouses. The centerfold features a map showing the locations of the lights. Illustrations are by Sid Couchey. In 2000 I paid $7.30 which included shipping.

I checked our books thinking we may have one not listed, of course we don't. In my copy of "America's Lighthouses" by
John Murray, on page 76, Presque Isle Pa. actually has pictures of Presque Isle Mi. I just wondered if anyone had noticed.

One more for the list - Lighthouses - Intro by Michael Vogel, Friedman/Fairfax publishers. Coffeetable book of very good full page lighthouse photos and lighthouse quotations on the facing pages.

Got a package in the mail today from LH Depot with a copy of the book Lighthouses of France: the Monuments and Their Keepers. This is a collection of Jean Guichard's photographs of the French lighthouses. He is probably best known for his photo of a giant wave about to engulf La Jumet whose the keeper, Theodore Malgorne, was peering out the door at the base of the lighthouse at the time. The book has over 200 photos, is instock at LH Depot for $29.95, and well worth the price for the photography in my humble photographic opinion.

Just received for my birthday American Landmarks "The Lighthouse" by Amy Handy. It is really great with wonderfully done photos. (It is already on our list) If you haven't seen it I think you would really find it well done.

Great job in putting together a list of reading material for me over the next few years. I really like a list like this to give "hints" for gifts. I would hope with all this effort by people to create a somewhat complete list, that it could be added to the HL website as a reference for the future. As new books are found they could be added and there would be a place users could go to find material they are interested in.

Dick's idea sounds like a good one to me, if it can be done.

Gary - do you have this list of books in a database program? Or Excel? Or a Tab-delimited file?

John,
The list currently reside on an Excel spreadsheet. I'll email it to you as an attachment Monday. By the way I've added another dozen or so titles to the list.
