"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.
