A comprehensive and authoritative history of the historic White House China Collection, this illustrated reference is a must for every White House library.

For the presidents, a basic component of official entertaining has always been the dinner table. To enhance each White House event, table settings—china, silver, linens, and flowers—are elegantly designed to convey the ultimate in diplomacy, national pride, and hospitality. Documenting more than two centuries, this book features the historic china used for official White House entertaining and private family meals that survives as a touchstone of the American presidency. As this book conveys, the presidential china in the White House comprises a museum collection of unequalled historic significance. The new edition of this award-winning title opens with a foreword by Stewart D. McLaurin and includes every china service in the White House collection, from the Washington and Adams china to the three services most recently added to the collection, those of the William Jefferson Clinton, George W. Bush, and Barack Obama presidencies. By William G. Allman, former Curator of the White House. For more information about our titles please contact books@whha.org.
