With this, the 26th edition, the Historic Guide, celebrates 60 years in print, and with it, the White House Historical Association celebrates its 60th year in publishing. It was First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy's wish that such a book be written, and her letter opened the first edition, the first project of the White House Historical Association. Since that time eleven first ladies have continued the tradition, including First Lady Jill Biden who has written an opening letter for this edition. Of the guidebook, Dr. Jill Biden has said: "As an educator, I hope this guidebook will inspire curiosity about the presidents and the first families who reflect their time in history and help us learn from the past so that we can build a more just nation." This edition features new spreads with photographs of behind-the-scenes areas including the bowling alley, the kitchen, collections storage, the calligraphy office, the floral shop, the tennis court, and pool. The new edition of the guidebook will also provide readers with a more comprehensive view of the State Floor with fold-out pages and wide-angle photos. Among the rooms that are featured in the anniversary edition with the new photography and updated text are the State Rooms, the West Wing, the Queens' Bedroom, Lincoln Bedroom, Center Hall, Yellow Oval Room, President's Dining Room, West Sitting Hall, Oval Office, West Wing Reception Room, and the Roosevelt Room. There are photographs of never-before-seen features from within some of these rooms including: the Presidential Seal on the ceiling of the Oval Office, the Gettysburg Address displayed in situ in the Lincoln Bedroom, and President Theodore Roosevelt's Nobel Prize Medal in the Roosevelt Room. Review: Everyone should read - Great photos and well written. Excellent way to learn about our White House. Review: An American Icon... - A Great Book updated through the Joe Biden administration. A must have, for anyone interested in an American icon representing the People's House. It truly was a source of pride. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 105 Reviews | ## Images ![The White House: An Historic Guide - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81v7lJqHO1L.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Media Format** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Everyone should read *by N***L on February 16, 2025* Great photos and well written. Excellent way to learn about our White House. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An American Icon... *by V***. on January 16, 2026* A Great Book updated through the Joe Biden administration. A must have, for anyone interested in an American icon representing the People's House. It truly was a source of pride. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Tour into History *by L***T on July 2, 2013* I had a copy of this when I was a pre-teen and simply devoured its information and great photos. Now, as an older adult and having recently visited the Sixth Floor Museum in Dallas, TX where I saw a copy of it (under glass), I simply HAD to see it and read it again. I was not disappointed. The condition is very good. The shipping was EXCELLENT. The memories and history contained are priceless. This edition was printed before JFK's death and has a forward written by the First Lady. It is now a treasured item I will pass to my grandchildren some day. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ae/products/498225108-the-white-house-an-historic-guide](https://www.desertcart.ae/products/498225108-the-white-house-an-historic-guide) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Arab Emirates* *Store origin: AE* *Last updated: 2026-09-23*
