Description
The Lighthouse Keeper's Son by Dallas E. Quidley Jr. This collection of personal narratives shares the author's life experiences as the son of a lighthouse keeper, offering a glimpse into the life of these dedicated mariners. With modern marine safety technology, the traditional way of life has largely disappeared, yet many lighthouses still stand and are open to the public. Through his stories, Quidley reveals aspects of life in the lighthouses, highlighting the skills and qualities required of those who worked in this field. The US Lighthouse Service and the US Coast Guard have played a significant role in safe marine navigation, and Quidley's family has been no exception. This book chronicles a life well-lived, with cherished memories of a man who has experienced his life to the fullest.
