Description
The many moods of Michigan's majestic sentinels are brought to life by the amazing images in Ed Wargin's Legends of Light. Wargin, one of the region's most talented photographers, has been busy shooting Michigan lighthouses, trying to capture each in a manner that exudes the unique character of our most popular lakeshore monuments. By land, air, and sea Wargin takes you on a personal tour of his favorite locations--from the remote and rarely seen to the most heavily visited tourist sites. From summer's gentle sunshine to winter's bitter fury, each page of this book reminds the reader why millions of people visit Michigan lighthouses each year. Let Legends of Light help you plan a trip or take you to places of which you can only dream.
