Keeper of the Lights: The Maritime Society is Preserving New London's Iconic Lighthouses

An exhibition featuring the three historic aids to navigation acquired by the New London Maritime Society from the U.S. Government for preservation, public access, and educational purposes: Harbor Light, Ledge Light, and Race Rock Light.  

Published in the Society's 40th year, the exhibition highlights its mission to promote, interpret and celebrate the maritime life and history of the port of New London and the surrounding region.

The Frank L. McGuire Maritime Library, named for one of the Society's founders, maintains an extensive collection of books, documents and postcards on the subject of lighthouses.

Chapters of the exhibition are listed in the sidebar. They also appear at bottom of each page, where one may navigate in either direction.
