Frank Sinatra is more than a legend. This is perhaps the only image of America that has remained impeccable, no matter what. This book is considered his best biography. And not only because its author, Randy Taraborrelli, who was admitted into the “inner circle” of his idol, collected memories and stories about Frank from almost five thousand of his acquaintances (including his immediate relatives) for many years. But also because this book, in a sense, was “blessed” by Sinatra himself, feeling that it was Taraborrelli who managed to reveal more deeply and more accurately than all other biographers the complex, contradictory, restless, unusually deep nature of “Mr. Blue Eyes” - not so much Sinatra- musician, as much as Sinatra the man. And also because from the pages of this book Sinatra’s living voice sounds - his memories of his childhood and youth, reflections on music, succinct and sometimes caustic comments about the world of show business and politics, warm words about friends allow the reader to feel one on one with the greatest, one and only Frank Sinatra.
