Thomas Point Shoal Lighthouse: A Chesapeake Bay Icon
by Gendell, David       
(Paperback - English - 9781467145978)
For centuries, the hard-packed shoal at Thomas Point menaced Chesapeake Bay mariners. Even after two separate stone towers were built on the shoreline, sailors continued to request a light at the end of the mile-long shoal. When a new lighthouse was finally approved in 1873, experts deemed its novel design too fragile for the location--it was built anyway.

Thomas Point is the last Chesapeake Bay screwpile-style lighthouse in its original location and one of only twelve American lighthouses designated as a National Histor ..

Spomeniks
by Jimenez, Jonathan       
(Hardcover - English - 9781908211682)
