The Island Adventures of Paul Stedman is a rare glimpse into a childhood spent at a lighthouse during the Great Depression. Young Stedman lived with his lighthouse keeper grandfather on Rose Island in Narragansett Bay within view of Newport Rhode Island. The book is based on diaries and first-hand accounts from Stedman that he shared later in life. The book is unique in that it features historical fiction interspersed with history of the era, brought to life through rare archival photos, news accounts, and beautiful original paintings and illustrations. This is the second book of The Rose Island Lighthouse series and was lovingly created by Rhode Island author Lynne Heinzmann in concert with the Rose Island Lighthouse Foundation. The book includes information about the rigors of daily life on an island, and historic information about the lighthouse and its spectacular Fresnel lens.

Rhode Island author Lynne Heinzmann's historical novel Frozen Voices won the 2016 Fairfield University Book Prize. Her lighthouse books series grew out of a meeting with the Rose Island Lighthouse Foundation and their desire to share the wondrous history of the lighthouse and its people.
