The Lighthouse on Agate Bay at Two Harbors, Minnesota has been shining since 1892, and continues to this day. This book is the first complete account of the Two Harbors Lighthouse and the lives of its many keepers. The stories and descriptions are revealed through the keepers’ own words, and from official files.
What was it like to be the keeper? How did the absence of a tower stairway lead to such an uproar? Just how loud was that fog horn? And did someone say the lighthouse was haunted? The answers are here along with the story of how this lighthouse came to be, and of the keepers and their families who lived here. The text is also generously illustrated with old photographs and diagrams.
The mission of the Lake County Historical Society is to preserve the history of Lake County, Minnesota through the preservation, study and interpretation of artifacts, documents, photographs and historic sites and to tell the story of our past and present culture.
