The whole point of a gossip book is to gossip. There's not enough gossip, although Ms Head does dish out some nice details about the stars with whom she worked. But she's just too NICE about the whole thing.

Still an interesting read, and it is a reflection of a kinder, gentler Hollywood--or at least one much more likely to cover up the real scandals.
Not quite as dishy as I would have liked. And since Edith Head was Paramount Picture's fashion designer for decades, I'm sure she was just full of dish. Alas that this book came out in a gentler time, when people were less likely to write and tell. Still, good stuff about the Hollywood fashion world.
