Edited by: Robert B. MacKay, Anthony K. Baker & Carol A. Traynor
Long Island’s natural beauty, easy access from New York City, and suitability for yachting and other recreational pursuits made it the perfect place for the leisure class and from the Civil War to World War II, almost 1000 estates were built there for some of the nation’s richest and most prominent families. This important volume is both a rich architectural history and a compendium of the architects and firms who designed these breathtaking homes.
