Eighteen lighthouses still stand in the Carolinas, from Currituck
Lighthouse near the Virginia border down to Haig Point Lighthouse near
the border with Georgia. Author Zepke tells how they were built and how
they have weathered hurricanes, erosion, and neglect. Some are open to
visitors; others can be seen from the coast or on a passing boat. In
this second edition, all the travel guide information is updated, along
with new sections on light keepers, the U.S. Lighthouse Board, and a
timeline.
