A New York Times bestseller: A fascinating behind-the-scenes look at life on Pennsylvania Avenue with America's first families, by the man who spent nearly three decades in their midst J. B. West, chief usher of the White House, directed the operations and maintenance of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue--and coordinated its daily life--at the request of the president and his family. He directed state functions; planned parties, weddings and funerals, gardens and playgrounds, and extensive renovations; and, with a large staff, supervised every activity in the presidential home. For twenty-eight years, first as assistant to the chief usher, then as chief usher, he witnessed national crises and triumphs, and interacted daily with six consecutive presidents and first ladies, as well as their parents, children and grandchildren, and houseguests--including friends, relatives, and heads of state. J. B. West, whom Jackie Kennedy called "one of the most extraordinary men I have ever met," provides an absorbing, one-of-a-kind history of life among the first ladies. Alive with anecdotes ranging from Eleanor Roosevelt's fascinating political strategies to Jackie Kennedy's tragic loss and the personal struggles of Pat Nixon, Upstairs at the White House is a rich account of a slice of American history that usually remains behind closed doors., In this New York Times bestseller, the White House chief usher for nearly three decades offers a behind-the-scenes look at America's first families.

- s***n (199)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufThis seller was quick to ship within a short window. I ordered just a day before on a Friday and just a few days later, Monday, the book arrived in excellent condition. It is even better condition than described but I can understand why the zoecl2 listed it as very good. I am glad that the book was shipped in a bubble mailer and marked fragile. This book is an excellent price and is of high quality. Thank you very much, zoecl2! I will be glad to be a repeat customer of yours.
