This fascinating history of New Zealand's lighthouses will captivate the reader and give insight into a bygone age when men and women strove against the elements to maintain the safety of the mariners. In Sunset to Sunrise, the reader is taken on a typical present-day annual tour of inspection of lighthouses, beacons, buoys and various aids to seagoing navigation scattered around the entire coast of New Zealand. Together with historical details, this book commemorates the indefatigable, long suffering and conscientious lighthouse keepers and their families, weaving tales of hardship and endurance scarcely believed in today's world.
