Within these pages is the story of America's lighthouse tenders under the control of the US Lighthouse Service from 1840 until 1939, when the service became a part of the US Coast Guard. This country's maritime literature is filled with tales of romantic lighthouses and lonely lightships, but very little has been written on the early lighthouse tenders. Ironically, lightships no longer serve in American waters, and while lighthouses are being discontinued, the tender is still an active part of the fleet of today's US Coast Guard.

U.S. Lighthouse Service Tenders 1840-1939

Peterson, Douglas

The remarkable "inside" story of how the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse on North Carolina's Outer Banks was moved to safety from the encroaching Atlantic Ocean. The media called it the "move of the century"... an engineering feat never equaled. Many said the country's tallest lighthouse would fall before it reached its final destination more than one-half mile inland. Some said the historic lighthouse, often referred to as America's lighthouse, should be preserved at its original site and not be moved at all. In the end, the U.S. Park Service,engineers, and well seasoned movers calculated the risk and without fault sucessfully moved the lighthouse out of harm's way. 
The book features a history of the lighthouse and the nearby Outer Banks area and continues through the years until the lighthouse was re-located in 2000. 
The quality hardbound book contains over 200 four-color photographs and illustrations along with vintage B&amp;W photos of the lighthouse and lightships that served at the Cape Hatteras Station.
