Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. For more than 170 years, Delaware's lighthouse keepers guarded one of the most dangerous coastlines in America. Their lives unfolded far from the spotlight, yet their work shaped maritime safety, coastal communities, and generations of families who lived at the edge of the sea.Delaware Keep…ers: Life at the Edge of the Sea tells the largely untold story of these men and women-from the first keeper appointed in 1769 to the quiet end of human watchkeeping in the mid-twentieth century. Drawing on newspapers, government records, congressional testimony, and family histories, the book reveals lighthouse keepers not as lonely eccentrics or tragic figures, but as skilled federal employees whose lives blended technical responsibility, civic duty, and family endurance.The story begins at Cape Henlopen during the colonial era, when keepers worked under primitive conditions amid political upheaval. During the Revolutionary War, Elizabeth Dickerson reportedly burned the lighthouse rather than allow it to guide British ships. In the early republic, keepers like Abraham Hargis pleaded with President Thomas Jefferson for relief from isolation and financial hardship, exposing the human cost of maintaining the nation's coastal lights.As lighthouse construction accelerated in the nineteenth century, so did the challenges. New technologies, inadequate training, and bureaucratic neglect left many keepers struggling. Reform came in 1852 with the creation of the U.S. Lighthouse Board, which professionalized the service and reshaped daily life at the stations. The Civil War tested that system, while producing a generation of keepers-often war veterans-who elevated the role's public standing.Contrary to popular myth, most keepers lived stable lives rooted in family and community. They raised children, joined churches and civic groups, and served for decades at the same stations. When tragedy struck, it stemmed from specific circumstances, not inevitable madness. The book replaces legend with lived reality.Many keepers became local leaders. George W. Duncan organized bands and baseball teams while tending the Port Penn Range Lights. Harry E. Spencer fought through Delaware's worst recorded snowstorm to reach his post. Irvin S. Lynch raised nine children at the isolated Mahon River Light while conducting rescues, including saving survivors from a wrecked barge during the Great Depression. Others repeatedly risked their lives to save strangers along Delaware's coast.The book also gives voice to lighthouse families. Hannah Hill's 1950 congressional testimony reveals decades of sacrifice-dragging boats across ice, losing children at remote stations, and keeping lights burning alone during illness-offering a rare account of life beyond official records.The final chapters follow the profession's disappearance as automation replaced human watchfulness and the Lighthouse Service merged into the Coast Guard in 1939. Abandoned stations were dismantled, their materials scattered, and much of Delaware's lighthouse heritage nearly erased. Preservation efforts emerged only decades later, led by descendants, educators, and local advocates determined to save both structures and stories.The lights that still stand along Delaware's coast now guide memory rather than ships. Delaware Keepers restores the people behind those lights-revealing a forgotten chapter of American history shaped by service, responsibility, and quiet heroism in times of storm and darkness. For 170+ years, Delaware's lighthouse keepers safeguarded one of the Mid-Atlantic's most dangerous coastlines. This book reveals their lives as skilled federal employees, rescuers, and community figures-not the myths history left behind.
