Description:

What do you serve the Sultan of Oman and his enormous entourage for dinner? Who should sit next to a foreign dignitary who doesn't speak a word of English? Why is it that there is always less silverware at the end of a state dinner than you had when the night began? Former First Lady Nancy Reagan answers these questions and more as she provides a rare and intimately personal look at life as a White House hostess.



Mrs. Reagan embraced this role with a unique energy and joie de vivre rare among her predecessors, and she has been waiting for the right moment in history to share her stories. From tales of her first event as a White House hostess (the President's surprise 70th birthday party, which was mistakenly announced by Tom Brokaw on Today that very morning), to the state dinner at which Mikhail Gorbachev refused to wear a tuxedo, to John Travolta's infamous dance with Princess Diana, Mrs. Reagan has seen it all.


Chock full of personal anecdotes and glorious photographs from the former First Lady's private collection, the Ronald Reagan Library, and the White House Historical Society, as well as historical tidbits, Entertaining at the White House with Nancy Reagan is the definitive source on classic formal entertaining.
