biography of one of the most elusive public figures of our time.
Celebrated journalist Kitty Kelley spent three years researching
government documents (Mafia-related material, wiretaps and
secret testimony) and interviewing more than 800 people in
Sinatra's life (family, colleagues, law-enforcement officers,
personal friends). Fully documented, highly detailed and
filled with revealing anecdotes, here is the penetrating story of
the explosively controversial and undeniably multi-talented
legend who has ruled the entertainment industry for more
than fifty years. " " The whole story of his childhood, which is far different than the one he invented. His beginnings as a skinny kid crooner who caused a bobby sox craze. His relationships with Harry James and Tommy Dorsey. His climb to the top as a singer and movie star - and the scandal, violence and moodswings that followed. His trail of broken marriages to Nancy Sinatra, Ava Gardner and Mia Farrow. His on-going womanizing with the famous and unknown. The inside story of the rise and fall of the Rat Pack. His friendships with powerful Mafia figures. His public and private displays of verbal and physical abuse, both with and without his notorious bodyguards. His wildly lavish displays of generosity toward friends and charities. His vast influence that extends into the White House, today more than ever. The magnetism that still draws huge audiences worldwide. " " THE NO-HOLDS-BARRED INSIDE LOOK
