� Do you know� anyone who grew up in� a lighthouse? Well, here is a true story of the Roberts family's three generations of lighthouse keepers in the U. S. Lighthouse Service.� Their dedication and devotion began in 1894 when grandfather was assigned to the Cape Saint George Lighthouse in Apalachicola, Florida, and lasted for over fifty-eight years and three generations.� This story, recorded by a family member, is all about� their lighthouses, family lives, duties of maintaining & operating the� lighthouses along with childhood stories of� his growing up on� lighthouse stations during the depression years. �A review� by The St. Simon's Soundings, Fort Walton Beach, Florida:� "This life at the lighthouse has succumbed to electric power, automation and� GPS and it was wonderful to hear of it from one who was there; the author informs and entertains with tales of his youth. Moreover, Billy Roberts is a breath of true history for all of us who have recently become 'natives' of this Gulf Coast".�
