New England's foremost maritime historian Jeremy D'Entremont continues his definitive series about the storms, shipwrecks, and heroic lighthouse keepers of the region with The Lighthouses of Maine: Acadia Region and the Bold Coast. Twenty-two lights are detailed here, beginning with Burnt Coat Harbor Light, on Swan's Island in Blue Hill Bay, to the northernmost lighthouse in the state, Whitlocks Mill Light, located on the St. Croix River near Calais. Each chapter features a treasury of historic photos and all the stories of the keepers, the storms they battled, and the wrecks they tried valiantly to save.
