Book Review of The Woman at the Light

The Woman at the Light
reviewed on + 46 more book reviews


This is a great book. Although rated as fiction, the author admits using a lot of actual historical accounts of female lighthouse keepers' actual experiences.
It has a great story line that makes you not want to put the book down. There is some much history woven through the book, but not the kind that bogs you down...the kind that flows along and makes the facts come alive for you.

Just, all in all, a great, easy to read and follow book.

There are some very sad, tragic parts, and some very surprising parts too.
