The complete inside story of the 1999 move of the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse which was called the move of the century - an engineering feat never before equalled. Many said the 200-foot high Cape Hatteras Lighthouse would collapse before it reached its final destination more than half-a-mile inland.

This book is filled with the history of the lighthouse and includes colour photographs and diagrams of the historic move.
