On presidential chefs:

My 21 years in the White House.
Author: Fields, Alonzo.
Publication: New York, Coward-McCann 1961

(I found this through a mention in J.B. West's _Upstairs in the White
House_, which also immortalizes a number of White House cooks and
housekeepers)

There was the memoir of an early-twentieth century first lady, available
on Google Books-- Helen Herron Taft's "Recollections of Full Years"
http://books.google.com/books?id=q2AEAAAAYAAJ
which has a bunch of stuff on the cookery in the White house.
