About this product

Product Information

The complete inside story of the 1999 move of the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse which was called the move of the century - an engineering feat never before equalled. Many said the 200-foot high Cape Hatteras Lighthouse would collapse before it reached its final destination more than half-a-mile inland. Some said the historic lighthouse should be preserved in its original position and not be moved at all, but something had to save the lighthouse from the encroaching Atlantic. In the end the US Park Service, engineers and well-seasoned movers calculated the risk and without fault successfully moved America's lighthouse. This book is filled with the history of the lighthouse and includes colour photographs and diagrams of the historic move.
