Jim Lammers presents his newest book, “Lighthouses of the Great Lakes: An Architect’s Sketchbook.”
The book contains 500 sketches of beacons all over the Great Lakes area. Lammers takes readers on a road trip, sharing the history and inner workings of the lighthouses as well as the lighthouse establishment itself.
Copies of the book will be for sale at the event.
"If you love the Great Lakes and lighthouses, this is the book for you. Lammers is an entertaining guide for this illuminating adventure, combining fascinating history and personal vignettes with wonderful sketches of the noble beacons he encounters along the way. Don’t be surprised if, after reading this book, you want to hop into your car to take your own lighthouse tour."
—Eric Jay Dolin, author of Brilliant Beacons: The History of the American Lighthouse
