Sag Harbor and the surrounding townships of Southampton and Easthampton are captured here at the beginning of the twentieth century, showing a landscape defined by its maritime heritage and the arrival of the railroad. The Montauk Division of the Long Island Rail Road cuts across the South Fork, connecting established coastal villages like Bridgehampton and Water Mill with the growing resort and fishing communities. Along the southern coast, the presence of Life-Saving Stations such as Shinnecock L.S.S. and Southampton L.S.S. highlights the historical importance of sea rescue before modern navigation.
