США
Добавлен 18 ноя 2020
The Montauk Lighthouse is the oldest lighthouse in New York State. The Lighthouse was authorized by the Second Congress, under President George Washington, in 1792. Construction began on June 7, 1796, and was completed on November 5, 1796. It still serves as an aid to navigation. The Montauk Lighthouse was designated a National Historic Landmark in recognition of the property’s national significance in the history of the United States on March 5, 2012, by the Secretary of the Interior.
Rumrunning Presented by David Cataletto
In the 1920s, Prohibition turned Montauk into a smugglers’ paradise, and many local seafarers and fishermen turned their hands to some illegal, and very lucrative, trading on the high seas. Dave Cataletto talks about the rumrunning life in our hamlet before the repeal of the 18th amendment, and shares some sea shanties to set the mood!
