A gorgeous new photo book from Assouline provides a glimpse of the early days of the Surf Club in time for its restoration and redesign by Pritzker Prize winner Richard Meier. Warning: This book may contain photos of frequent guest Winston Churchill in a bathing costume. The upside? Photos of a young Liz Taylor and the private club-turned-condo/hotel's original furnishings, including zebra-skin sofas. [NYT; Previous]
