Lighthouse: Beacon of History and Light

Lighthouse: Beacon of History and Light is a tribute to fifty-one iconic lighthouses from around the world, blending architectural wonder, maritime history, and human resilience. These towering beacons have guided sailors through storms and darkness for centuries, from ancient wonders like the Pharos of Alexandria and the Tower of Hercules to the rugged Fastnet Rock in Ireland. The book explores not only their unique designs and cultural significance but also the lives of the keepers who tended them under harsh, isolated conditions. Each lighthouse tells a story of innovation, endurance, and connection to the sea. More than navigational aids, lighthouses symbolize strength, guidance, and hope in both literal and metaphorical storms. Though many are now automated or retired, they continue to inspire and mark coastlines as monuments of history and human determination. This book invites readers on a journey through time, across oceans, and into the enduring legacy of these maritime sentinels.
