At Home with Carolyne Roehm

Summary: At Home with Carolyne Roehm
Review: This book should have been called "Entertaining with CR" or " CR's Table". It is a great book in entertainment for every season. This is not a book about home. I am a big fan of Ms. Roehm. I have purchased all of her books and extra copies to give as gifts. All her books make beautiful gifts (including this one). The title of this book is misleading. I had expected to see Home Decorating Ideas including furniture and accessories. The closest description to a home is a Carriage House. "A Passion for Flowers" had beautiful pictures of her apartment in Paris and what used to be Weatherstone. I had expected to see more of these. The book mentions that these 2 homes no longer existed at the time the book was written. If not for the misleading title, Ms. Roehm's talents in entertaining and table decorating make this a beautiful book.
