I'm a big Marjorie Merriweather Post fan and have been to her home/museum in Washington, D.C. so I really enjoyed this book. It tells of her early life along with her life with husband E.F. Hutton. That was life in the fast track with Hutton. The part about life with her third husband, the Ambassador to Russia was very interesting. It was the beginning of frozen food and she shipped an entire freezer full of food to Russia. worth reading if you like biographies.
