What she ate : six remarkable women and the food that tells their stories / Laura Shapiro.

Shapiro, Laura (author.).

Summary:

A culinary historian's short takes on six famous women through the lens of food and cooking--what they ate and how their attitudes toward food offer surprising new insights into their lives. Each of the six women in this entertaining group portrait was famous in her time and most are still famous in ours, but until now, nobody has told their lives from the point of view of the kitchen and the table.
