Lightships

Their Design, Development and Diversity

Anthony Lane , Martin Augustus
Around the British coast for almost three centuries, lightships warned vessels of hazards such as sandbanks where lighthouses could not be built. Extensively illustrated with photographs and diagrams, this survey traces their development from early wooden boats equipped with whale-oil lamps to the steel-hulled vessels and powerful electric lights of the 20th century, before their replacement by radio and sonar warning systems.
