Book Description

April 1, 1999
This is a practical and humorous Guide to the rich and sophisticated Hamptons section of Eastern Long Island. The "Guide" reviews and rates over 600 merchants and service providers in over 300 categories: everyone and everything from A-to-Z. We dispense "Practical Advice" as well as hand out awards ranging from Platinum (very rare!) through Gold, Silver, Bronze and Honorable Mention. We are not afraid to tell you who's the best and where you should be spending your time and your money when you're in The Hamptons. We've got it all: restaurants, B&B's, Inns, hardware stores, beaches, and recreational activities of all kinds. This is vital information for visitors, new arrivals, and even for those who have lived in The Hamptons "forever."

1.0 out of 5 stars More like an opinionated Hamptons Yellow Pages, July 16, 1999

This review is from: The Hamptons Survival Guide, 1999 Edition (Mass Market Paperback)
This book would be more useful for those who are VERY frequent vistors to the Hamptons -- but I found it to be less introductory than I wanted as someone who doesn't care where to find a good chimney cleaning company.

5.0 out of 5 stars WoW! Is this book helpful!, October 28, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: The Hamptons Survival Guide, 1999 Edition (Mass Market Paperback)
This is, hands down, the best and most practical guidebook to the Hamptons I have seen! Chock-a-block full of really useful information--and done in an anecdotal style that is really easy to read!
