The cover doesn't do it justice... June 20, 2008

Wonderful. The bland cover really doesn't do the book justice. Excellent resource book for French-style interiors.

Her first couple of books were very good. Her last 2 to 3 books (including this one),she talks alot about the french people. She goes into the history of Madame de Pompadour, Marie Antoinette and Louis XVI and very little about decorating. She compares Americans and French people. Quite boring actually.
Surveys distinctive interiors which blend French with other international elements April 4, 2006
Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA)
6 out of 10 found this review helpful
Author Betty Lou Phillips is fascinated with all things French - and her French Connection hones her interests and focuses on the changing styles of French furnishings over the decades. Any involved in French style and interior design must have French Connection: it surveys distinctive interiors which blend French with other international elements, providing a survey of French designers and patrons of the arts and dual pursuits of glamour and ease in home tastes. Her history of Parisian and French flair and how it translated to home interiors makes for an outstanding introduction.
