Cove Neck by John E. Hammond, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

Looking out over the majestic waters of Oyster Bay, the village of Cove Neck has played an outsized role in the history of Long Island and the nation. Theodore Roosevelt's Sagamore Hill was home to the federal government during the summers of his presidency and remained his cherished residence throughout his life. Cove Neck played a role in the early days of motion picture history as the location of James S. Blackton and his Vitagraph Studios. The hardships of the village's agricultural past were detailed in Mary Cooper's colonial diary, and her Cove Neck farm still stands. Authors John E. Hammond and Elizabeth E. Roosevelt cover the history of Oyster Bay's historic Cove Neck. | Cove Neck by John E. Hammond, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
