Coastal Ghosts & Lighthouse Lore
|
$9.95
|
|
By William O. Thomson. Along the Atlantic Ocean, old homes, inns, and lighthouses line the New England coast and give rise to many stories of ghostly apparitions. Old salts suddenly appear in cemeteries. Victims of lost love roam dark halls. These spirits, trapped in time, continue to haunt the towns they once called home. Sea serpents, murders, omens, and other strange events are the subject of much New England lighthouse lore. Life was challenging at these outposts on the edge of the sea and the keepers, their families, and even their pets faced many dangers and hardships. They were truly dedicated servants of the shore. This new soft cover book has great historical photos and 112 pages. A must-have for anyone who loves the sea. # 91501

|
$5.95

By Robert Ellis Cahill These are terrible tales filled with intrigue and suspense, and all true. Possibly the vessels mentioned are not haunted ships, but merely victims of unusual circumstance or coincidence. Possibly these are illusions of superstitious seamen, but in each case, the Atlantic Ocean has prompted the events recorded on these pages, and only she can provide the answers to these mysteries. # 91780
