Synopsis

As anyone familiar with city life knows very well, the constant demands of career, family, and social obligations can take their toll. For years, New Yorkers have fled to the East End of Long Island, whose peaceful North Fork has quietly drawn those seeking a laid-back, low-key lifestyle and the rustic splendor of its villages, bays, farms, vineyards, and pastoral wooded landscape.

In North Fork Living, Harry Haralambou, who has lived there for twenty years, lovingly captures the character of the region in his own words and spectacular images. From Peconic and Riverhead to Orient and Greenport, the unique integrity of each town is revealed in its architecture and sights. Accompanied by spectacular photographs, North Fork Living reveals the lovely essence and irresistible charm of this gorgeous place in all seasons of the year. A complete listing of vineyards and wineries is included.
