AbstractHistoryArchive Description

Having stayed out all night, Lower decides it would be safer to become a lighthouse keeper than go home to his wife. Accompanied by his grandfather, who is to act as a foghorn, he retreats to a convenient lighthouse. He has no idea of the horrors that are about to befall him.
