Official White House China: From the 18th to the 21st Centuries;

Last released in 1998, this important resource has been updated and expanded by White House Curator William Allman to include the State Services released in the William Jefferson Clinton, George W. Bush, and Barack Obama administrations. Allman documents the personal and official services used by the presidents and their families for official entertaining and private dining for more than two hundred years and tells the story of how these special services came to be treasured as a significant part of the White House decorative arts collection.
