SHIPWRECKS, SCALAWAGS, AND SCAVENGERS:
THE STORIED WATERS OF PIGEON POINT
Glencannon Press Maritime Books – October 2007
Pigeon Point, located along California’s central coast, is the site of an historic lighthouse and a rich maritime heritage. Between 1853 and 1953, ships of all types - clipper ships, barks, schooners, steamers – fell victim to Pigeon Point’s unpredictable weather and rocky shoreline. If it is true that every ship has her own soul, then every shipwreck has a spirit waiting to be rediscovered. It is a voyage worth taking. Place your order with: |

Reviews
“The author’s comfort with descriptive words and
phrases mean pleasure for the reader. Her photo-rich book … is a worthy
addition to your collection of local history books.”
(June Morrall, author and historian)
“…100 years of maritime magic between 1853 and 1953.
It chronicles the shipwrecks in those waters in an informal, conversational
style, peppered with old photographs and sketches that give a sense of time
and place…”
(Half Moon Bay Review)
“The book is full of suspense, colorful lingo, and tons
of information”
(Between the Tides)
