Summary: A feast for the eyes, and a worthy source of inspiration
Comment: Not a cookbook, but of immense and thematically appropriate interest to cooks, chefs, and dinner party givers, The Well-Set Table is a visual dedication to the art of preparing for a meal, offers dazzling color photographs of exquisite plates, showcases calm sitting rooms, illustrates delectable appetizers and entrees, emphasizes homey table environments, and a great deal more. A feast for the eyes, and a worthy source of inspiration for anyone seeking to spruce up their dining room or patio, The Well-Set Table is a unique addition to any dedicated gourmet or celebratory dining reference collection.

Summary: It looks great, and gets used..
Comment: I had the chance to take the tour of Mr. Gainey's garden that takes place every mother's day in Decatur, GA. Despite the fact that the settings and objects pictured in this book look like I might not use them to eat with, Mr. Gainey does. I would say that the other reviewer missed the whole point of this book. It was so refreshing to see someone take pleasure in both common and rare objects such as Mr. Gainey. (i.e. in his garden I found old tin bucket next to a hand built ceramic sculpture). This is not a how to "set a table",but it is a how to "think about a table setting" with great pictures, and use of one-of-a-kind & common items together.

Summary: Not the Book I thought it would be...
Comment: I was very disappointed in this book. It is more of a coffee table book than a guide to setting tables. It has some beautiful photography and illustrations but there is hardly any writing.The few table that are shown are set with such expensive items you wouldn't be able to afford to put any food on the plates. I would not have purchased this book had I known this.
