  This biography traces the career of Frank Sinatra, from his childhood days as a solitary latchkey kid in New Jersey, to the fame and fortune he achieved once his unique singing talent had been recognized. It looks at the man behind the myth in an attempt to reconcile the crooner on-stage with the bully behind the scenes, and details the company he kept, of presidents, mobsters, fellow stars and Hollywood sex symbols. Particular attention is paid to Sinatra's reinvention after his fall from grace in the late 1940s, and subsequent triumph.
