Lighthouses are the true survivors of Scotland’s industrial heritage, and to this day they continue to throw a lifeline to seafarers at the mercy of treacherous weather. We are still enthralled by the idea of the life of the keeper, the beauty of the lens and the lamp, and the calm reassurance of a flashing light. From ancient beacons to the work of the Stevensons and the Northern Lighthouse Board, and from wartime strife to automation and preservation, Donald S Murray explores Scotland's lighthouses through history, storytelling and the voices of the keepers.
