Produktbeschreibung
Vanishing Lighthouses explores the poignant stories of maritime sentinels lost to time and tide, examining the multifaceted reasons behind their disappearance. More than mere navigational aids, these lighthouses represent human ingenuity and beacons of hope. The book reveals how factors like coastal erosion have claimed these structures, with some disappearing entirely due to the relentless power of the sea. It also highlights the strategic roles lighthouses played in naval warfare, sometimes leading to their destruction or abandonment during conflicts. The book weaves together maritime history, coastal geography, and maritime folklore to understand the circumstances surrounding the loss of these landmarks.

It progresses by first introducing the concept of lighthouses and then cataloging instances of disappearance due to coastal erosion and climate change. Later chapters examine the role of lighthouses in naval warfare and explores the socio-economic factors driving lighthouse abandonment. Ultimately, the book serves as a reminder of the changing relationship between humanity and the environment and the importance of cultural heritage.
