This book is a biography of Marjorie Post, illustrated with a wealth of historical photographs, archival documents, exquisite works of art, and other souvenirs of any extraordinary life. As owner of Postum Cereal Company, and later a director of General Foods Corp., post wielded financial oversight of mansions on multiple estates, a yacht, fabulous jewelry, and an impressive art collection, capably creating and managing a twentieth-century life of luxury, complete with a butler, footmen, gardeners, and personal maids. But it was not Post's ability to read a spreadsheet for which she was often noted in newspapers and magazines.

paperback. Condizione: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.…

"Living Artfully is a beautifully illustrated account of the life and workings of the three main estates of Marjorie Merriweather Post as seen through the eyes of the staff that worked there. Full of evocative images it is designed in the form of a year-long calendar, the properties being used at different times and seasons - Hillwood in Washington, DC in the spring and fall, Camp Topridge in the Adirondacks of New York during the summer; and Mar-A-Lago in Palm Beach in the winter. Mrs Post was one of America's most stylish and powerful women during the 1950s and 60s, a director of Post Cereals, philanthropist, patriot, and internationalist as well as a passionate art collector. This new volume reveals the inner workings of her estates, through photographs, period journals and ephemera from the archives, and fascinating glimpses provided by the staff, including an interview with 91 year-old former Head Gardener Earle.
