Selected as one of the 2009 Kansas Notable Books In "Kelly
Alexander and Cynthia Harris's smartly drawn, surprisingly
uplifting biography [...] the authors share Paddleford's eye for a
good story, deftly documenting their subject's well-deserved
contributions to food journalism, but balancing them with
biographical color."
-New York Post
"Alexander and Harris paint an affectionate portrait of the
eccentric writer, an ebullient yet imposing individualist and
charismatic adventurer...Rich, flavorful and spirited, like its
subject and the cuisines she chronicled."
-Kirkus
"At long last, an enthusiastic, significant rehabilitation of
Paddleford's career as food writer from 1936 to 1966 at the New
York Herald Tribune...The authors make an upbeat case for
reconsidering Paddleford's achievement in this enjoyable read, and
include a slew of her comfort recipes."
