Book description

This book describes how the White House was conceived, planned and built, and the changes which have since taken place.
The magic of the White House
How it all began
The "first families" move in
Dolley Madison's legacy
How "democracy" altered the president's house
Deaths and developments
The rascals who almost wrecked the White House
The power and the conflicts
The march of progress
The loneliest of all decisions
Pleasures and pastimes
Courtship and weddings
Modernization and restoration
Again, the magic of the place
