No one has insight into their true character like the people who serve their meals and make their beds every day. Full of stories and details by turns dramatic, humorous, and heartwarming, The Residence reveals daily life in the White House as it is really lived through the voices of the maids, butlers, cooks, florists, doormen, engineers, and others who tend to the needs of the president and the first family. These dedicated professionals maintain the six-floor mansion's 132 rooms, 35 bathrooms, 28 fireplaces, 3 elevators, and 8 staircases, and prepare everything from hors d'oeuvres for intimate gatherings to meals served at elaborate state dinners. Over the course of the day, they gather in the lower level's basement kitchen to share stories, trade secrets, forge lifelong friendships, and sometimes even fall in love. 610 20 $a White House (Washington, D.C.) $x History $y 20th century $v Anecdotes. 650 0 $a Presidents $z United States $v Anecdotes. $v Anecdotes. 650 0 $a Presidents $x Family relationships $z United States $v Anecdotes. 650 0 $a Presidents' spouses $z United States $v Anecdotes. $v Anecdotes. 650 0 $a Children of presidents $z United States $v Anecdotes. $v Anecdotes. 650 0 $a Household employees $z Washington (D.C.) $x Social life and customs $v Anecdotes. 651 0 $a Washington (D.C.) $x Social life and customs $v Anecdotes. 655 7 $a Biographies. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Anecdotes. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Audiobooks. $2 lcgft 700 1 $a White, Karen $q (Karen Elizabeth), $e narrator. 710 2 $a Harper Audio (Firm) 710 2 $a Blackstone Audio, Inc. 941 $a 9 945 $a cdab 952 $l ALPE516 $d 20240417013828.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20230902012459.0 952 $l SIPD314 $d 20230201020551.0 952 $l BNPD611 $d 20210323015759.0 952 $l TOPB062 $d 20190501012338.0 952 $l MXPG943 $d 20180720044122.0 952 $l KWPE446 $d 20160112110428.0 952 $l YTPG232 $d 20150728012405.0 952 $l TDPH826 $d 20150728011551.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=22E77DF814B611E5AA717CE2DAD10320 994 $a C0 $b JIWInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
