Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com Review

Devotees of romantic Victoriana are generally devoted as well to Victoria magazine, turning to it regularly for decorating, entertaining, and style ideas. Christmas with Victoria collects the year's best, centered on the holiday theme.

Gorgeous photographs proclaim, in the words of editor-in-chief Peggy Kennedy, "the many moods of Christmas: nostalgic, pastoral, elegant, or ... pretty." In trademark Victoria style, the expected touches all make their appearance; the ornaments, trimmings, displays, and table settings all feature such elements as yards of pastel ribbons, lots of lacy flourishes, arrays of antique crockery and vintage flatware, the patina of the weathered farmhouse, the gleam of silver candlesticks.

An extensive food section (comprising about half the book) supplies tempting recipes for an afternoon open house, a full-fledged winter feast, and a multitude of baked-goods gifts. There's really not much substance to the project component--a few ornaments and stockings, some sachets and garlands, and the like--but everything, as Peggy Kennedy declares, is very pretty. --Amy Handy --This text refers to an alternate Hardcover edition.

5.0 out of 5 stars Holiday magic, August 18, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Christmas With Victoria : Decorations, Gifts, and Recipes for the Holidays (Hardcover)

I loved this book. The recipes are terrific, the ideas are helpful, and the photos are so pretty the season's special mood comes alive. Even in August it made me feel the spirit of Christmas, and on a sunny summer day, that's saying something!

2.0 out of 5 stars Long on looks, short on information, December 1, 2000

By A Customer

If you are looking for a book that teaches you about how the Victorian's spent Christmas, this is not it (go for "Victorian Christmas" by Kalman and Bedell). If you are looking for a book of beautiful pictures, with minimal decorating, plus gift and recipe selections a la Martha, this is for you. I was disappointed.

3.0 out of 5 stars Christmas With Victoria 1998, November 10, 2008

By	Joetta Harikian (Sherwood, Oregon) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Christmas With Victoria 1998 (Hardcover)

This is the least favorite of all my Christmas With Victoria books. That's probably just due to my taste (entirely personal).
