2007 IACP Award Winner!


Special Price until August 31st in honor of Julia Child's birthday!



This delightful memoir of Julia's years in
Paris, Marseilles, and Provence opens with Paul and Julia--a tall, wide-eyed girl from Pasadena who can't cook and doesn't speak a word of French--disembarking in Le Havre, and ends with the launching of the two Mastering cookbooks and Julia wining the heart of American as The French Chef.

Begun several months before she died, My Life in France was completed by Paul's grandnephew Alex Prud'homme, based on hours of talks with Julia and on family letters. Funny, earthy, forthright--Julia is with us on every page as she relishes the French way of life that transformed her, and us.

Julia's voice always rings true in this book about the years that transformed her, and led to her transforming how we all think of food. When faced with men who "knew" what women wanted, she persevered and delivered the real goods. A fascinating story.
