Book Description

"While there have been in excess of four hundred ships wrecked in Table Bay during the Cape's short history many have occurred in the area off Green Point. SO critical was the situation in the early days that the Green Point lighthouse was commissioned in 1824 followed by the Mouille Point light in 1842. 'Wrecked Under the Green Point Light' captures the stories of the building of the Lighthouses and a half a dozen of the wrecks that have occurred along the Green and Mouille Point coastline."-- Back cover.
