Situated at the end of a reef six miles offshore of Crescent City; California; stands St. George Reef Lighthouse. Constructed after the wreck of the coastal steamer Brother Jonathan in 1865; the beacon warned mariners of the dreaded "Dragon Rocks" of St. George Reef for nearly a century. This book chronicles the loss of the Jonathan; decades of efforts to make the light a reality; the 10-year construction period; manning of the station by keepers of the US Lighthouse Service and Coast Guard; and the struggles and accomplishments of dedicated volunteers to restore what many lighthouse historians refer to as "Americas greatest lighthouse."
