ELSA. MAXWELL

Elsa Maxwell rose from the plains of the mid-West to the ballrooms of London, Vienna and New York, fashioning herself a career as hostess extraordinaire for international society, including the Duchess of Windsor, Clark Gable, Maria Callas, and Somerset Maugham.

In this classic treatise on the art of entertaining, Elsa shares her secret for turning mere get-togethers into unforgettable social occasions. With equal servings of wit and practicality, Elsa holds forth on the countless details that go into a successful gathering: she alleviates the confusion of a full set of silverware, laments the unnecessary extension of the "cocktail hour", prescribes topics of conversation for any situation, and offers stern advice on the control of disruptive inebriates.
But most of all, she advocates enjoying yourself.
Forty years and two thousand parties in the making, with recipes from the kitchens of such eminent chefs as Cole Porter, Claire Boothe Luce, and Joan Fontaine, How to Do It is both a sparkling period piece and a serious guide to having fun. Vissza
