Overview

Celebrated in literature and film as a playground for the rich and famous, Long Island's North Shore—its Gold Coast—has long had a firm hold on the imaginations of readers, vacationers and titans of industry. Glimpsed here are the palatial summer homes of the wealthy, historic old buildings and the dramatic landscape with its rolling hills, views of Connecticut and coves lined with boats. Offering 101 of the most iconic images of the people and places that have come to define the North Shore, local historian and author Richard Panchyk has created a volume sure to inspire the next generation of Eggers.
