"After 90 years, the house in good taste - by America's "first lady of interior decoration," Elsie de Wolfe - still offers timeless advice in the ever-changing field of home design." "Compiled in 1914 from de Wolfe's articles in newspapers and magazines, The House in Good Taste influenced not only the wealthy clientele of Park Avenue and Palm Beach, but the nature of popular decoration for years to come." "The planning and design of countless twentieth-century American homes can be traced to this seminal text."--BOOK JACKET.
