About this ebook

From a singing waiter, to a boy singer with the big bands, to the ‘Sultan of Swoon’, in just a few years in the 1940s Frank Sinatra became America’s epitome of class and elegance before becoming the Chairman of the Board.

Ol’ blue eyes lived a life more colourful and exciting than almost anyone from his generation and it’s all here in this superbly illustrated book. It charts Frank Sinatra’s career – the highs, the lows, his hits, his loves and his films, with fantastic archive photographs that bring to life the faces, places and personalities that made his world so memorable.

Frank was a massive success in Vegas with his sell out seasons and also got to sing with his mates in his very own Rat Pack. He retired from singing in the early seventies only to return proclaiming that ‘Ol’ Blue Eyes is Back’. He continued to record and perform dressed up in his ’tux’ until the mid-nineties. He passed away in 1998 aged 82.

We shall never see his like again and as he so eloquently put it, “You only live once, and the way I live, once is enough.” This book tells the wonderful story of one of the greatest performing artists of all time!
