Two books lie on an Afghan rug. To the left is "The Illustrated History of Irish Lighthouses," by David Hare, illustrated by Linda Fährlin; its hard cover shows colorful drawings of lighthouses of various shapes and sizes, and a red lightship. To the left is a paperback edition of "Guiding Lights: The Extraordinary Lives of Lighthouse Women" by Shona Riddell; its cover shows the silhouette of a woman in a long dress in profile superimposed on the image of a rocky seashore and the pink and purple silhouette of the top of a lighthouse tower.
