I think I've posted one or both of these before, but here's a Nation review of his Apple's America book, and a contemporaneous News Hour interview piece.

i am really gonna miss his 20 course meal descriptions in the wed. food section. i really loved reading those. i couldn't believe he died for some reason when i saw his picture on the cover of the paper! which was weird cuz i found out my grandmother died today and i totally believed that (she was 101).

'toothsome squab"! That is going to make me happy all day. A life well lived, and well written.
