Real Life at the White House Two Hundred Years of Daily Life at America's Most Famous Residence
- Binding: Hardcover
- Publisher: Routledge
- Publish date: 09/01/2000
Real Life at the White House celebrates two centuries of domestic life in this historic abode. In forty-two chapters -- one for each administration -- this stylish sourcebook takes us on an intimate tour of the daily life of each president and his family, bringing into view everything from china patterns to built-in closets (a luxury added during the Truman renovation), from plumbing to telephones (Coolidge refused to use the phone for business) from architectural structure to state dinners and family meals.
Filled with hundreds of anecdotes, photographs, and presidential quotes from Washington (who never lived there but oversaw the first plans) to Clinton, this thoroughly engaging book captures the texture of presidential life while documenting the very human history of a house.
