Sinossi
Remembered primarily as an eccentric and deluded billionaire, Howard Hughes was once America's golden boy, a celebrated aviator and Hollywood legend who romanced hundreds of beautiful women. The scope of his life made him one of the most influential figures in America. Where previous biographies have concentrated on Hughes's business empire, Howard Hughes: The Untold Story unveils the full story of the tycoon, tracing his bold efforts to reshape Hollywood, his devastating health problems, his erratic behaviour during his last decades and his tangle of steamy relationships with stars such as Katharine Hepburn, Bette Davis, Ava Gardner and Ginger Rogers. Drawing on hundreds of exclusive interviews and documents charting, among many other revelations, his troubled family relationships, drug addiction, secret harem of teenage mistresses and the part he played in the Watergate scandal, Howard Hughes: The Untold Story follows Hughes's transformation from lover and business innovator into reclusive captive of his own fears.

Riveting from first to last, this is a tale of tragedy on a grand scale (MARIE CLAIRE)

Valutazione del venditore 5 su 5 stelle
Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. Howard Hughes (1905-1976), aviator, film producer, entrepreneur and famous recluse, was the most mysterious - and richest - man of the century. This work reveals the truth about Hughes' secret love affair with Katherine Hepburn; his boundless sexual appetite, where he romanced women in shifts - three or four a night; his uniqueness as the Hollywood figure who successfully enticed the three sex goddesses of the 1940s - Ava Gardner, Lana Turner and Rita Hayworth; his private harem involving more than 200 young starlets; his active participation in the Watergate scandal; and his mysterious death. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Codice articolo GOR000963482
