Take an unparalleled photographic journey through the Hamptons. The best-known residents of this exclusive cluster of towns open their personal albums and invite you to see the Hamptons - their way. Calvin Klein, Julian Schnabel, Patrick Demarchelier and Peter Beard are just a few of the people who share their visions of one of the most unusual getaway spots in the country. More than a playground for the rich and famous, the Hamptons has an incredibly diverse community. Fisherman and year-round locals have coexisted for more than a century with artists, writers and actors, making this small piece of Long Island so alluring. Combining photo archives and beautiful shots from famous vacationers, In The Spirit Of The Hamptons captures the past and present, the mix of culture, stunning beaches, exclusive homes, day-to-day small-town life and the people who have made the Hamptons such a unique place.

Waste of $$$,

This review is from: In the Spirit of the Hamptons (Hardcover)
There are so many other great books on the Hamptons out there. I wouldn't waste your $$ on this one....
1.0 out of 5 stars
Nice to leaf thru, but on the shallow side, no depth,
This review is from: In the Spirit of the Hamptons (Hardcover)
Borrowed this book, thinking it would be a little different from photos and descriptions we see all the time. Nice photos, but I was looking for depth and interesting style and twists to pique my interest in this famed locale. Instead it was a bunch of pretty pictures with dim prose. This is not an interesting collection, but it's fairly nice in a very ordinary and pedestrian way. I wouldn't buy this book-- flip through it for five minutes and you're done.

A True Picture of the Hamptons,
By
This review is from: In the Spirit of the Hamptons (Hardcover)
Kelly Lilloren-Bensimon truly has accomplished what she set out to do; to capture and express to others the true spirit of the hamptons. Whith her myriad of photographs and well written commentary she expresses the Hamptons in a way few others she. She truly melds the old fishing community with the new Platinum community. I feel though that her last line epxresses her book and the spirit of the Hamptons best. "The hamptons is a place where are drivign home and the sunset is so breathtakingly beautiful you have to pull over and watch for a while."
