The book provides a glimpse into the kitchen of each administration and includes brief descriptions of Presidential parties and weddings.  Each recipe is accompanied by unusual facts and amusing anecdotes.  For example, the night of Grant’s second inaugural ball was so bitterly cold that many guests danced with their coats on and the food froze solid!
