Bellport Village, with its beautiful historic homes and sweeping views of the Great South Bay, has remained a thriving community through the years, retaining its strong sense of place. The Bellport streetscape is alive with diverse architecture that has enriched the lives of its residents and visitors for generations. One knows immediately when one is in the Bellport area. It is a place apart, where the monotony of contemporary suburbia gives way to the charming eccentricities of history. Through a wealth of historic images, most never published before, from several private collections and from the extensive archives of the Bellport-Brookhaven Historical Society Museum, Bellport Revisited chronicles the history of a village that has resisted development and remained a charming and unique place.

To truly understand what makes Bellport, New York, USA the village it is, it helps to be familiar with the local history of preservation and conservation. Victor Principe has gathered in one volume the what, when, where, and who, to tell a story about discovery, development, change, maturity, and memory that underlay our experience of this area today. It wasn't just luck. As Bellport emerged as a full-fledged summer place in the later part of the 19th century, awareness that its charms relied on more than its resort-like amenities became evident. It was loved because of what Captain Bell's generation had left behind: houses and streets nestled on an elevation overlooking the bay. As Bellport grew, respect and admiration for what had come before informed what was built after, and that is why, Victor argues, Bellport looks the way it does today. Because this tiny village, and the hamlet next door, endeavored to keep their characters more or less the way they had always been, they endowed upon themselves a very strong sense of place that would survive both depression and suburbanization. As change swirled around them, they, as a consequence, became ever more distinct. Following generations were determined to maintain this sense of place, despite the inexorable post-war growth of Long Island and the obscurity that befell this once popular summer place. But by the late 20th century, social forces challenged that determination - and quality of life - as it became clear instinct alone could no longer be relied upon to preserve what made Bellport and the hamlet unique.

Planned and chartered on April 24, 1834, the Long Island Rail Road commenced operations in 1836 to provide a route to Boston.

Electrification was begun on the Long Island Rail Road in 1905. Whether it was commuter, freight, or special trains, third-rail operations played a major role in the Long Island Rail Roads development as well as the people, places, and industries it served.

“Exuberant . . . elegantly conjures an evocative group dynamic.” —Sam Roberts, New York Times From its birth in 1925 to the early days of the Cold War, The New Yorker slowly but surely took hold as the country’s most prestigious, entertaining, and informative general-interest periodical. In Cast of Characters, Thomas Vinciguerra paints a portrait of the magazine’s cadre of charming, wisecracking, driven, troubled, brilliant writers and editors. He introduces us to Wolcott Gibbs, theater critic, all-around wit, and author of an infamous 1936 parody of Time magazine. We meet the demanding and eccentric founding editor Harold Ross, who would routinely tell his underlings, "I'm firing you because you are not a genius," and who once mailed a pair of his underwear to Walter Winchell, who had accused him of preferring to go bare-bottomed under his slacks. Joining the cast are the mercurial, blind James Thurber, a brilliant cartoonist and wildly inventive fabulist, and the enigmatic E. B. White—an incomparable prose stylist and Ross's favorite son—who married The New Yorker's formidable fiction editor, Katharine Angell. Then there is the dashing St. Clair McKelway, who was married five times and claimed to have no fewer than twelve personalities, but was nonetheless a superb reporter and managing editor alike. Many of these characters became legends in their own right, but Vinciguerra also shows how, as a group, The New Yorker’s inner circle brought forth a profound transformation in how life was perceived, interpreted, written about, and published in America. Cast of Characters may be the most revealing—and entertaining—book yet about the unique personalities who built what Ross called not a magazine but a "movement."
