Summary: An Excellent Book
Comment: I have been exposed to Frank Sinatra's music all my life, and been a fan of his since I was 9. However, after reading this book, I feel I know him in a way like never before, in a more detailed, intimate way. I truly understand the kind of man and person he was. Tina does an outstanding and thorough job explaining the man her father was, from all points. She describes what he was like as a father, husband, friend, performer, etc. She leaves nothing out, nor does she sugar-coat the story. She tells the truth, in an honest, loving, respectful way. I am proud to say I own this book, and have enjoyed it very much. It's a must for all fellow Sinatra fans. My hats off to her- great job, Tina!

Summary: Understand How Young Love Changes Rich Old Men
Comment: Read this book because you love Frank Sinatra and are curious. Buy this book for the terrific photographs of a fabulous era.
Tina Sinatra tells it like it is when powerful, older, rich men marry manipulative beautiful women, who take over their lives and their money and fight like alley cats to keep full possession. I lived Tina's story with Pop's house with pictures of the family he loved for 75 years before trophy wife, promoting her family, ignoring our family, telling lies to alienate him from his children. Like Tina, I remember Pop's last days, knowing he was miserable, depressed, under oppression, without options.
Rich old men need to read this book so this doesn't happen to them. Rich old men's children need to read this book to learn what could be in store for them should their Pop decide to marry a woman much closer to their ages than his.
Bravy, Tina, for having the courage to tell the world the "rest of the story" about the crooner they loved, your beloved father, Frank Sinatra.

Summary: Interesting & fast read!
Comment: Good Read!!!
I have read several other books about Frank Sinatra which chronicle his childhood, the bobbysox years, the Rat Pack years, the Mia years, etc. However, this is the first book I have come across that goes into detail regarding his years of marriage to Barbara Marx & the last years of his life. That alone makes the book fascinating as it fills in missing gaps.
Furthermore, the fact that the book is written from an insider's perspective helps in making it a riveting read. The book flows smoothly and quickly and I don't feel like Tina tries to sugarcoat her father' life (which is how I felt when I read a book written by Nancy Sinatra Jr.). Tina mentions both his good and bad sides and she is very candid in her feelings and emotions regarding her family and father.
The only thing I really wonder is why did Frank stay married to a money-grubbing, social climber for so long? He could have had his pick of beautiful woman, so why her? I would love to know what was really going on in his mind regarding his last marriage, but as he is dead and gone we may never know.
