A beautifully illustrated selection of stories about the lighthouses and their guardians found in some of the most remote places on earth. There is something beautiful and wild in the impossible architecture of lighthouses. They have been the homes and workplaces of men and women whose romantic guardianship has saved countless lives from cruel seas.

Yet while that way of life fades away, as the lights go out and the buildings crumble, we still have their stories. This is a glorious book full of illuminating stories that will transport the reader to the world's most isolated and inspiring lighthouses. Over thirty tales that explore the depths to which we can sink and the heights to which we can soar as human beings, and accompanied by beautiful illustrations, nautical charts, maps, architectural plans and curious facts.
