Hardcover. Condizione: Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: Fine. 1st Edition. Fine condition gold boards with black spine lettering contained in a fine condition photographic dust jacket. Includes Dedication; Acknowledgments; Introduction: "Where There's a Will, There's a ."; Endnotes; Reproductions of Telltale Signatures and Intere…sting Wills; and Glossary of Legal Terms. "Harry Helmsley was one of the Super Rich, but he found he couldn't take it with him. Phil Hartman was a master comedian, but he sure didn't have the last laugh. Carlos Castenada's spiecial 'visions' didn't mean much in the end. Frank Sinatra was generous, specific, and controlling, in life and afterward. These are just a sampling of the 100 people represented in this compilation by Herbert E. Nass, an attorney who specializes in estates and wills. Wills are often the cause of great joy as well as great strife. They are as varied as the people making them, and when these people are among history's most celebrated, the last words are fascinating as the source of one more glimpse into their rarefied worlds. A Will can be used as a vehicle to express love or gratitude, but it can be a person's last opportunity to settle a score, as well, as Joan Crawford did when she expressly disinherited two of her four children. More often that not, however, a person's public persona is reflected in his or her Will. Princess Diana, despite her untimely demise, had her Will in order, and left an estate worth $35 million U.S. dollars to her two sons. Frank Sinatra's Will went on for pages, so much so that there is a Table of Contents. From Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis and her son, John F. Kennedy, Jr. and his father, former president John F. Kennedy, to writers such as Ayn Rand and John Steinbeck; artists llike Andy Warhol and extraordinary entertainers such as Rudolf Nureyev and Sammy Davis, Jr.; sports legends like Babe Ruth and Joe DiMaggio; lost legends such as Clark Gable, Marilyn Monroe, Rock Hudson - they and others are represented, as well as reproductions of several of the Wills themselves and the person's signature. Wills of the Rich & Famous is a remarkable look at some remarkable people." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps.
