This is the first-ever social history of the most exclusive & unusual enclave in America. Bestselling author Steven Gaines writes about the world behind the walled estates & rolling dunes-a world of money, celebrity, property, & eccentric characters-in this mesmerizing novel. A summer haven to Steven Spielberg, Martha Stewart & Billy Joel, to name just a few, the Hamptons have long been the retreat of choice for Nouvelle Society, international aristocracy & the most creative & powerful personalities in the corporate, entertainment & media worlds. Gaines bears it all, with a pleasant historical look at the land & its inhabitants before the invasion of the outrageously rich.
