During the 1980s - three lighthouses (Gay Head, East Chop, and Edgartown lighthouses) on Martha's Vineyard were scheduled to be torn down. Due to serendipity of a coastal erosion research project led by William E. Marks, a successful effort to save the three lighthouses was initiated. This video contains rare video footage of Ted Kennedy speaking at a fundraiser on Martha's Vineyard - his only island public appearance following the Chappaquiddick Incident. This is the only video documenting the story as to how these three unique Martha's Vineyard lighthouses were rescued from destruction.
