Autorenporträt
Geoffrey K. Fleming carefully chose for St. James a mix of vintage images from public institutions, private historians, and other collectors. He handpicked, researched, and arranged the pictures to offer a glimpse of a bygone era in a beautiful setting. The author of Bridgehampton and Southold, he currently serves as the director of the Southold Historical Society and as the historian for the village of Head-of-the-Harbor.
