The book explores the historical significance of lighthouses in Maryland during Colonial times, highlighting their role in marking perilous waterways as shipping routes expanded. It details the unique design of these structures, particularly wood-framed cottages on screw pile foundations, and the challenges they faced from harsh conditions and ice. The narrative also addresses the decline of these beacons due to technological advancements like electricity and GPS, leading to vandalism and neglect, resulting in the loss of most original lighthouses.
