A Tale of Two Beaches

With the help of dozens of fascinating photos, maps, documents and postcards, presenter John Macone will explain "A Tale of Two Beaches."
Macone is the former editor of the Daily News of Newburyport and co-author of the book Plum Island and Salisbury Memories, and currently works as the development specialist for the Merrimack River Watershed Council.
