Lighthouse ladies : shining a spotlight on hardy heroines / words by Kris Coronado ; art by Islenia Mil.

Coronado, Kris, (author.). Mil, Islenia, (illustrator.).

Summary:

"Ahoy! To man a lighthouse over a century ago in America required guts, courage, and bravery. It was a job tackled by hundreds every day, many of whom . . . were not men! This true tale chronicles the amazing and dramatic feats of four fascinating women. Each real lighthouse lady featured in this book whether she's on a wind-walloped Hawaiian cliff or an icy channel off the Virginia coast shows that girl power was around long before it became a popular phrase."-- Dust jacket flap.
