East Hampton Library hosted its 18th Annual Authors Night fundraiser. One of the most popular and celebrity-studded events of the Hamptons’ summer calendar, Authors Night featured 100 authors across all genres. The “Premier Literary Event of the Hamptons” has grown over its history to become one of the most successful celebrations of books and authors in America, and one of the largest library-author events of its kind in the country.

Pity the poor horseshoe crab. It is, without question, a survivor almost beyond compare. Consider this: There are fossils of the creature dating back 445 million years. Dinosaurs arrived about 200 million to 250 million years ago — which means the time between us and dinosaurs is equal to the time between dinosaurs and the earliest horseshoe crabs. And they’re still here, nearly unchanged. But they finally may have met their match. The American horseshoe crab has “vulnerable” status, according to the International Union for Conservation of Nature. The population faces a whole series of challenges, including sea-level rise, coupled ... 3 Dec 2025 by Editorial Board

Normalized Chaos

Donald Trump did not emerge in a vacuum. He is the product of a long line of teachers, each shaping his instincts, sharpening his worst impulses, and reinforcing a worldview where power matters more than truth, and notoriety is worth more than integrity. His father taught him the basics: that people are assets or liabilities, and that whole communities — particularly Black families — were to be avoided because they were “bad for business.” That worldview didn’t make Trump a racist in the classic sense; it made him a calculator, someone who learned early that prejudice could be profitable. He ... by Staff Writer

Worthy of Debate

The long knives came out in response to my recent letters condemning the violence toward ICE agents doing the hazardous work of finding illegals to screen for deportation. My sense is that the recent ballot success in New Jersey, Virgina and New York City has reawakened a Democrat voice that had been gagging on the Trump agenda and its broad implementation. Steve Crispinelli [“Useless Durak,” Letters, November 6] is perfectly free to defend the woke agenda, defend what he believes is free speech and how successful this first year of Donald Trump’s second term have been, but the name-calling adds ... by Staff Writer

Proud Legacy

I want to extend my deepest thanks to the voters of Southampton for placing your trust in me once again to serve as a Town Trustee. It is an honor I do not take lightly. Every day, I am reminded of how fortunate I am to help steward our extraordinary bays, beaches and waterways — resources that define who we are as a community and connect us to generations of people who cared for this shoreline long before us. I am excited to continue the long, proud legacy of the Trustees as we work to protect water quality, support our ... by Staff Writer
