Praise
"THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO COCO CHANEL...is part self-help and part Chanel biography. A small volume with whimsical illustrations by Chesley McLaren, it looks like a trifle. Looks can be deceiving....[C]heck out THE GOSPEL for useful insights into some of the strategies and traits that made Ms. Chanel a mogul."
