I haven't read that yet but I did read "The Tenth Muse, My Life in
Food" by Judith Jones, Knopf food editor about 2 years ago. I think
she worked with Child and many other old school food greats. Some
very charming, enjoyable stories about a life very well lived. She's
still going strong at +80 years so I found it inspirational as well.

I picked it up at the library and I am now reminded to buy a copy
along with "Beautiful Swimmers" by William W. Warner about crabs in
Chesapeake Bay. (see "chesapeake bay oysters" thread same day as
this one)
