In the Hamptons Too: Further Encounters with Farmers, Fishermen, Artists, Billionaires, and Celebrities

Tales of the sometimes rich, sometimes famous, but always quirky residents of one of Americaâ€™s best-known summer colonies, as told by the editor and publisher of Danâ€™s Papers, the areaâ€™s free weekly newspaper.

As the editor and publisher of Danâ€™s Papers, the areaâ€™s popular free newspaper, Dan Rattiner has been living in and covering the Hamptons for over fifty years, and has watched it change from a sleepy backwater of fishing villages and potato farms to a playground for the rich and famous. In this follow-up to his popular book In the Hamptons, Rattiner continues to regale us with tales of the people who live, work, and play in one of Americaâ€™s best-known summer colonies, ranging from colorful locals like former East Hampton Town Supervisor Richard T. Gilmartin and marine patrol policeman Ralph George, to more well-known figures like Kurt Vonnegut, Betty Friedan, Alger Hiss, and Martha Stewart. Sometimes amused, sometimes appalled, but always observant, Rattiner tells these stories of the Hamptons as only he can tell them: with dry wit, unassuming language, and as keen an awareness of his own quirks and foibles as he is those of his fellow human beings.

Dan Rattiner is an award-winning writer and the editor and publisher of Danâ€™s Papers, the free newspaper he founded in 1960 when he was twenty years old. He is the author of In the Hamptons: My Fifty Years with Farmers, Fishermen, Artists, Billionaires, and Celebrities. He lives on Long Island, New York.
