Summary: Most enjoyable book I've read
Comment: The best book I've read on the lighthouse. Can't wait to buy the revised copy that includes the moving of the lighthouse. Mr. Carr is very knowledgeable on the history of this wonderful lighthouse. I've lived in North Carolina for many years and thought of the lighthouse as near the beach. Can't wait to visit it with all the knowledge I have now. Thank you Dawson Carr for a wonderful book. A double thumbs up to you.

Summary: Interesting and informative for NC history buffs/teachers!
Comment: I have been a resident of North Carolina all my life, but unfortunately never really had much of an education in the history of my state. I have taken it upon myself to become more knowledgeable in this genre. The Cape Hatteras Lighthouse: Sentinel of the Shoals is an easy-to-read book which gives the entire history of the lighthouses. (Until I read the book I never knew there had been more than one Cape Hatteras Lighthouse.) This book describes in detail the importance of the lighthouse to mariners and those living on the NC coast. Considering the wealth of information and the length of this book, I find it a wonderful resource for NC History teachers to use in the classroom. It's also a wonderful book for those of us who do not teach history classes, but yearn for knowledge about the "Old North State." The next book I plan to read about North Carolina will be Dawson Carr's second book, Gray Phantoms of the Cape Fear, which describes the importance of the ships called blockade runners during the Civil War.
