Beaver Island Beacon Book

Congratulations to Jeff and Bill Cashman of the Beaver Beacon for an outstanding job on their new book, "Life in the Beaver Island Archipelago". The book is a collection of pictures from the photographs and stories experienced while working on the Beacon. The pictures are of professional quality and a must have book for anyone living on or visiting the Island, also a wonderful gift idea. I bought my book at the Community and Visitor Information Center where they have a copy on display for viewing.
Again congratulations on a wonderful job and representation of Beaver Island.

We are back off the island. Sorry we missed the publication. I heard it is a great book and we will try and get a copy when we get back to Beaver later this year.

Cheryl, I would make sure you have a copy set aside for you, they are selling out as fast as they come in.
This is by far the best promotional material for Beaver Island that I have seen in my 35 years. The Beacon and Cashmans are wonderful ambassadors for the Island. They, as well as this book, are true treasures.

Fantastic book. Nobody can take a picture like Jeff Cashman! I've already bought a couple. They are going to make great Christmas gifts!

Thank you Mr. Taylor, not knowing when we will be coming back to Beaver Island, I will send for some.

A great idea.

Wow - your compliments are so very kind that I'm having trouble finding words to adequately thank you all, but I just wanted to let you know how much I appreciate your kind words. Thank you all so much - I really appreciate your kind words (and will have to work harder to live up to them!)

Truly a great book for memories of Beaver Island, as well as insight of what makes it what it is. Bill did a great job on the narrative and as always Jeff's pictures are great.

I'm not sure if there are any pirate pictures in the book but I will be ordering one anyway to keep on board for my visitors to Whiskey Island.
