About this ebook
Locals and tourists alike pass Nobska Lighthouse in Woods Hole on Cape Cod, Massachusetts, every day. We take comfort in Nobska’s beauty and powerful fourth-order beam. Folks on Martha’s Vineyard and parts of the Elizabeth Islands also enjoy Nobska as do mariners out at sea but from different perspectives and for different reasons.
We take a close look inside Nobska with photos and text to reveal the history from one of America’s most beloved lighthouse—Nobska!
