Fifteen families.
Four hundred years. The complex saga of the White Anglo-Saxon Protestant elite in
America's history.

For decades, writers from Cleveland Amory to Joseph
Alsop to the editors of Politico have proclaimed the
diminishment of the White Anglo-Saxon Protestants, who for generations were the
dominant socio-cultural-political force in America. While the WASP elite has,
in the last half century, indeed drifted from American centrality to the
periphery, its relevance and impact remain, as Michael Gross reveals in his
compelling chronicle.

From Colonial America's founding settlements through
the Gilded Age to the present day, Gross traces the complex legacy of American WASPs--their
profound accomplishments and egregious failures--through the lives of fifteen
influential individuals and their very privileged, sometimes intermarried
families. As the Bradford, Randolph, Morris, Biddle, Sanford, Peabody and
Whitney clans progress, prosper and periodically stumble, defining aspects in
the four-century sweep of American history emerge: our wide, oft-contentious
religious diversity; the deep scars of slavery, genocide, and intolerance; the
creation and sometime mis-use of astonishing economic and political power; an
enduring belief in the future; an instinct to offset inequity with
philanthropy; an equal capacity for irresponsible, sometimes wanton, behavior.

"American society was supposed to be different,"
writes Gross, "but for most of our history we have had a patriciate, an
aristocracy, a hereditary oligarchic upper class, who initiated the American
national experiment." In previous acclaimed books such as 740 Park and Rogues'
Gallery, Gross has explored elite culture in microcosm; expanding the
canvas, Flight of the WASP chronicles it across four centuries
and fifteen generations in an ambitious and consequential contribution to
American history.

Marjorie Taylor, Kendall Smith Franchini, Jess Thomson

A gorgeous cookbook about living well the French way from the founders of the Cook’s Atelier, a cooking school in Burgundy, France

French at Heart shows how to create simple, joyous family meals around your own table, in whatever place you call home.

When mother and daughter duo Kendall Smith Franchini and Marjorie Taylor moved to Beaune in Burgundy, France, to open their now-incredibly popular cooking school the Cook’s Atelier, they learned that choosing to appreciate tiny moments more mindfully, like they saw the French do, really opened their hearts.

To them, being French at heart doesn’t mean you have to speak French or live in France; it means slowing down enough to enjoy the little details of every day. Whether that’s preparing a meal for your family and taking the time to enjoy it together around the table or taking an extra moment to set the table with fresh flowers, curating your own joy is worth your time, and this cookbook offers plenty of ideas for ways you can adopt this particularly French habit in your own life.

These are classic recipes that will make you fall in love with things like Salade Niçoise, Duck Confit, and Tarte Tatin.

They are simple recipes, what Taylor and Smith Franchini often cook for their family after a long day, and reflect their take on familiar French favorites. They offer ways to adapt, improve, or simplify classic recipes, along with plenty of additional advice on how to serve a memorable cheese or charcuterie board, curate a French-inspired pantry, start your own kitchen garden, or get the most out of your local farmers’ market.

Creating meaningful moments around meals and sharing them turns out to be quite contagious—and exactly why people love coming to see Taylor and Smith Franchini at their cooking school. Cooking is about more than just the food, and while French at Heart has more than 100 go-to recipes, it is a cookbook for anyone who wants to discover those little details that make our time around the table even more special.
