The Curious Childhood of Wanton Chase
Rose Island Lighthouse Series
Wanton Chase lived with his grandparents at the Rose Island Lighthouse from 1910 to 1916, from the time he was 1 to 7 years old. Later in life, he recorded his memories of his adventures on the island, which he shared with the Lighthouse Foundation. His recollections are the basis for the story chapters of this book. The history chapters contain additional information and photographs to provide context for the stories.
Lynne M. Heinzmann also wrote the historical novel Frozen Voices (New Rivers Press, 2016), winner of the Fairfield Book Prize. She is a wife, mother, friend, author, architect, stained-glass artist, and beagle-lover who lives in North Kingstown, Rhode Island.
