I just bought three copies for my mom and sister and mother-in-law. The perfect Mother's Day gift. There are so many amazing stories. It's not all about gossip either. There's a story about 9/11 and how there was a barbecue planned at the White House and there were so many tables and chairs set out for the event. Since the White House was a target, they had to evacuate all of the staff. People were running out of the White House to safety. They were terrified, as I would be too! One of the staff members was so busy working downstairs at his job that he didn't hear the Secret Service evacuating everyone. He came upstairs and wondered where everyone had gone. Meanwhile the head chef and head usher decided to stay on the grounds of the WH and take down all of those chairs and tables because if they didn't do it no one else would. They spent all morning during 9/11 doing their duties.What's really incredible about this book is the dedication and service these men and women have made to serving not just the first families, but the institution of the White House. There are some families who have generations of family members who have served there. One family had like 5 or 6 family members working at the White House. They all loved and honored the traditions there and they all served no matter who got elected.One other thing I loved: You don't realize it until you read just how complicated it is for the first family to move into the White House. One family moves out with moving trucks, while the new family moves in -- all while the inauguration is taking place. It's so cool. I love this book and recommend it to anyone who has an interest in the presidency or the institution of the WH.170 of 189 people found the following review helpful.A Redundant Not Reveal AllBy E. HuindaSeveral reviewers who didn't really care for this book have commented that if one has never before read a "White House book" then this would probably be a good one for them. Well, I am one of these first timers and I wasn't all that impressed either. The writing is rather repetitive. The theme of the staff's loyalty and selflessness runs very heavily throughout every single anecdote. I realize that the author and the staff are trying to balance a fine line of remaining respectful to the first families while also striving to provide enough detail to catch the readers' attention, but I found the writing to be dry and the saintliness of the staff to be a smidgeon tiresome. Really, the book suffers from a lack of true character development, whether with the members of the first families or the White House maids and butlers (yes, even biographies benefit from character development), with the possible exception of the LBJ coverage, which provided some of the most interesting material in the book. This book wasn't quite the page turner I had hoped it would be.4 of 4 people found the following review helpful.Loved This BookBy Barbara A KleinKate Anderson Brower has written a New York Time bestseller, “The Residence”. This book delves into the private world of the White House and its first families according to anecdotes from staffers, the butlers, housemen, maids, chefs, curators, florists and others who work with the First Lady, the President and their children and staff. Each administration is totally different which makes it very difficult for some White House staff. However the household employees are very adept at their jobs and after each administration, are able to transfer their allegiance to the new First Family. They are also required to see and say nothing about the everyday lives of their charges. Each family is different and brings different challenges to those who serve them. The White House employees graciously acquiesce to the pleasures of those whom they serve and keep the many secrets to themselves.I really enjoyed this book and find it fascinating that these loyal staffers continue to serve unobtrusively, graciously, and with dignity in many situations. They know their jobs and do them diligently and well. They are sometime subject to the wrath and insensitivity of the First Families, but they serve nonetheless. I was extremely impressed by the many interviews and the research that went into the writing of this book. Well done.I purchased a Kindle copy of this book from .com.
