Guardians of the PiscataquaDescription
The Kittery Communicty Center Lecture Series presents 'Guardians of the Piscataqua - Whaleback & Portsmouth Harbor Lighthouses' with guest speaker Jeremy D'Entremont.
Come learn about on the past, present, and future of these two local maritime icons. This multimedia presentation will feature historic images, modern day photos, and video clips, focusing on the rich human history of these sites and their keepers — a legacy that stretches back to before the American Revolution. Also discussed will be the efforts of today's keepers, the Friends of Portsmouth Harbor Lighthouses (a chapter of the nonprofit American Lighthouse Foundation), to preserve the past. Jeremy D'Entremont is operations manager of Friends of Portsmouth Harbor Lighthouses, historian for the American Lighthouse Foundation, and author of more than a dozen books on lighthouses and maritime history.
