Mr S : My Life with Frank Sinatra

As the right hand of Frank Sinatra from 1953 to 1968, George Jacobs arguably had one of the coolest jobs in the world at the time when Sinatra was the master of the entertainment universe. Jacobs rose from humble beginnings to join Sinatra in the mansions of Manhattan, the palaces of Europe, the pinnacles of world power. Sinatra took Jacobs with him on the ride of the century, from blacklist Hollywood to Gangland Chicago to an emerging Vegas to Camelot, dolce vita Rome and swinging London. They developed a warm and intimate relationship that reveals a complex Sinatra: vulnerable and arrogant, charismatic and violent, loving and disdainful, confident and self-conscious. This is the most complete, honest, and intimate portrait of Sinatra ever written. Illus.Jacobs, George is the author of 'Mr S : My Life with Frank Sinatra', published 2005 under ISBN 9780756793241 and ISBN 0756793246.
