Written by Pasquale De Marco, a lifelong resident of the Great Lakes region, this book is packed with information on the history, architecture, and lore of these iconic structures.

The Great Lakes are a system of five interconnected freshwater lakes in North America. They are the largest group of freshwater lakes in the world, containing 21% of the world’s surface fresh water by volume. The Great Lakes are a vital resource for drinking water, transportation, recreation, and industry.

Lighthouses have played a critical role in the history of the Great Lakes. They have helped to guide ships through the treacherous waters of the lakes, saving countless lives and preventing shipwrecks. The first lighthouse on the Great Lakes was built in 1819 at Buffalo, New York. Since then, over 100 lighthouses have been built on the Great Lakes.

Today, many of the Great Lakes lighthouses are still in operation, serving as a reminder of the importance of these structures to the region’s maritime history. Others have been decommissioned and are now open to the public as museums or bed and breakfasts.
