      abstract = {Winner of the 2005 Book Prize from the Association for  Humanist SociologyIn this absorbing account of New York's  famous vacation playground, Corey Dolgon goes beyond the  celebrity tales and polo games to tell us the story of this  complex and contentious land. From the displacement of  Native Americans by the Puritans to the first wave of  Manhattan elites who built the Summer Colony, to the  current infusion of telecommuting Manhattanites who now  want to live there year-round, the story of the Hamptons is  a vicious cycle of supposed paradise lost. Drawing on this  fabled land's history, The End of the Hamptons provides a  fascinating portrait of current controversies: the Native  Americans fighting over land claims and threatening to  build a casino, the environmental activists clashing with  the McMansion builders, and the Latino day laborers and  working-class natives trying to eke out a living in an  ever-increasingly expensive town.},
