What Members Thought

This isn't the kind of book you read straight-through. It's a wonderful coffee table book: beautifully photographed and designed, excellently curated, and a real pleasure to read. The book includes a huge spectrum of letters-- including the Queen of England's scone recipe she sent to President Eisenhower! It also covers a variety of eras and nationalities. The photography is beautiful and Chronicle Books did a nice job with the printing-- it feels very high quality.
