Title: Great Lakes Buoy Tenders
Review: This is just a marvelous, definitive book. Both my Father and my Uncle were Captains of Buoy Tenders which worked on the Great lakes and the St. Lawrence River. Being born in 1931, I have boyhood memories of the actual tenders and life in the Lighthouse Service. Not only does the book enhance and confirm my memories but it provides much information I did not know. I have purchased copies for my brother and my two sons. If it is still available I may buy more copies, in the future. I have been working on the genealogy of my family and this book ties in with our heritage. My boyhood impression was of a little Lighthouse Service going into a big Coast Guard. Now I realize that impression was wrong and the addition of the Lighthouse Service, in 1939, almost doubled the Coast Guard.
