Legendary Lighthouses3-part PBS television series
Discover the remarkably beautiful world of lighthouses in
the United States, full of romance and history. Beginning
in the North Atlantic, where lighthouses began in America,
you'll explore the charm of Cape Cod and the Chesapeake
Bay as well as the coast of Maine, where more than 60
lighthouses mark its rugged shoreline. The Western Great
Lakes and South Atlantic includes Lake Superior and Lake
Michigan's hundreds of lighthouses including the wildly
beautiful and remote Isle Royal National Park as well as
the dangerous shoreline that stretches from the Outer
Banks of North Carolina to Lands End of Key West. Then
on to California and the Pacific Northwest for a program
that features the lighthouses of San Francisco, Los Angeles
and Big Sur as well as the wild and rugged wilderness coast
of Washington and Oregon, where building lighthouses required
ingenuity, courage and strength. |
Staying at a Lighthouse
Another PBS video that explores some of the most unique and romantic bed-and-breakfasts in the United States. From Maine to California, these beacons for ships now beckon tourists as gateways to the 19th century, when radar and cellphones were still generations away. You'll enjoy footage of the waterfront countryside where these American castles dot the coast. Interviews with relaxed guests whet the appetite for a break from city noise, traffic, and crowds. Staying at a Lighthouse is just the thing to counter 21st-century stress.
The National Lighthouse Museum is now an associate of Amazon.com.
