Description
More than just anecdotes and photos of Presidential Christmas cards, this highly researched volume presents a picture of life in the White House as viewed through a Christmas wreath. Season’s Greetings from the White House is the first book devoted primarily to Presidential Christmas gifts and cards, all of which have been beautifully reproduced, chronologically recorded and historically documented.
Interwoven with the personal recollections of Laura Bush and other First Family members are accounts of national and world events surrounding the time of Christmas and how these affected the family’s holiday celebrations—even when the events included Presidential impeachment and the election of the First Lady to the U.S. Senate. As the first single volume to bring together selected Presidential tree-lighting speeches, Season’s Greetings from the White House is truly a mini-history of America dating back to 1923 and Calvin Coolidge’s first National Christmas Tree.
