Roger Roth.
Dino journeys across the Mediterranean with his ship's-cook father to the ancient port city of Alexandria; he can't wait to see the famous Pharos lighthouse. He serves as lookout during a storm and is the first to spy the awesome landmark. Well-detailed paintings add authenticity to the wordy tale. An author's note provides additional information.
