Summary:
"Lighthouses have a particular fascination, and nowhere is that fascination more powerfully represented than by the noble towers which stand at Scotland's edge. This book is a celebration of those who made the building of these towers possible, of those who man the service today and of those who will steer it into the future, through the uncharted waters of the 20th century's technological revolution"
