Insightful
and highly entertaining - the definitive biography of a true legend
Frank
Sinatra was one of the most influential entertainers the world had ever seen.
He was also one of the most complex - generous, a loyal friend, a champion of
causes, a devoted son and father, unpredictable, a loud-mouthed tough guy and a
womaniser. What drove the skinny kid with a voice and a dream from an Italian
neighbourhood in New Jersey to become an international superstar and one of the
most important cultural figures of the twentieth century?
Written by acclaimed biographer J. Randy
Taraborrelli, Sinatra is based on in-depth research, including hundreds of
interviews. From the women he loved, including Ava Gardner, Mia Farrow, Marilyn
Monroe and Elizabeth Taylor to his ties to the Rat Pack, from his mob
connections to his friendship with the Kennedys, Frank's life was full of
excitement, danger and passion. This is a compelling and honest tribute to a
man whose songs touched a chord in all of us.
