Briefly profiles fifty lighthouses in North America (one of which is in Canada, the others in the contiguous US) that are in varying degrees of disrepair. For each, the authors summarize the history of the house's construction, noting any peculiar features, its period of service, its current status and mention of any restoration efforts planned or currently underway. Each house is presented with a current color photograph, and most have one or more historic photographs. An introduction shares stories of successful lighthouse saving efforts, and a conclusion pleas for further efforts to save those in the book and others at risk. Annotation c.

Tim Harrison has been called to remove bears from apartments, lions from city streets, bats from swimming pools, pythons from workshops, and cougars from backyards. He has met, and rescued, alligators from local rivers, farm ponds, pet stores and basements. He has raised a Bengal tiger and has mothered wolves. Pythons call his Springboro address home. Yet Wild Times, a collection of his wildest "suburban safaris", wasn’t written to compete with reality TV. The stories are hair-raising, and sometimes frightening. But Tim’s goal is to let people know of the growing chance that they’ll be coming across an exotic or local wild animal as their population increases in suburbs across the country. Harrison is a twenty-year veteran police officer, firefighter, and EMT-paramedic for the City of Oakwood in Montgomery County, Ohio. His popular speaking programs are legendary. Finally, he’s wrestled his stories between the covers of a book.

Tim Harrison, Oakwood, Ohio's police officer, paramedic, firefighter and exotic animal rescuer has penned another collection of exotic animal rescues from all over Ohio. Harrison who now has a national following, is the antithesis to the Crocodile Hunter. His message is clear, If you love wild animals, leave them where they are, in the wild. And he uses this book along with his other one to make his point clear.
