It’s not a $15.00 book, but at $28.00 it is still a bargain. Straight from the pages of the well-loved (and now defunct) House & Garden, The Well Lived Life marked its centennial celebration with photos of interiors and entertaining over the last century.The Well Lived Life includes photos from legendary photographers Irving Penn, Horst P. Horst, John Rawlings, Andre Kertesz, Lord Snowdon, Alfred Eisenstaedt, Ezra Stoller and George Hoyningen-Huene.
My guess is that this book will only gain in value in the years to come. I am amazed at the worth of a few similar books in my collection that are now considered collectors items. Of course I could be wrong, but you will still own a beautiful book.

I love that you do this! I'm going poor because of this but nothing better than a great bargain book!
Bill that makes two of us! :-)
I gave that to my mother as a gift a few years ago--It is a wonderful book!
Hi Ronda, just wanted to let you know I posted about a Scottish artist yesterday on my blog. I thought you may be interested...
I'm spending money like a drunken sailor. Fortunately I don't seem to get book hangover... thanks for the head's up. The Bunny Williams book arrived yesterday -- wow, a bargain, indeed.
Mine arrived today E&EL and I just love it!!!
Thanks for the heads up Mary-Laure.
Ronda, I've been to your blog a couple of times which makes me a lurker to your site but I'm coming out to tell you finally how much I love it. Great tips, great looking blog, great inspiration. Really all the best. Thanks for sharing. Milena
Thank you Milena!!
Thank you for the find- I was sad to see House and garden go. Will have to look the book up- can never have to many "pretty" books!
I miss HOUSE & GARDEN magazine!
