From Library Journal
Narrator Brian Emerson reads this celebrity profile in a well-phrased pleasant voice, with limited emotion. This is not a formal biography of superstar powerbroker Frank Sinatra, who died in May at the age of 82. We learn his likes, dislikes, and behavior as singer, actor, and head of Hollywood's "Rat Pack." Missing are things like rumors of Mafia connections or reprisals against enemies like ex-son-in-law Tommy Sands. Friends, relatives, and Sinatra himself provided info. This man of talent was fascinating, if flawed. He craved to be the best and own the best, was generous to friends and relatives, and hated journalists who wrote unsympathetically about his public brawls and affairs with women. Although far from complete, this study provides a good deal. Recommended for popular biography collections.?Gordon Blackwell, Eastchester, NY

Zehme's book ... is a tongue-in-cheek riff on Sinatra's style, with photographs, anecdotes, and snippets from the author's 1996 Esquire interview.... Zehme is as starstruck as a bygone bobby-soxer. Flashing back to 1964, he writes, "The man is at his peak of power, which is power like no man has known, because he is Sinatra."
