I love Sinatra, and while this book got me listening to him non-stop, it was so hard to read. I mean, it just felt like copy and paste stuff. And did anyone even bother to edit it...it just kept repeating itself...

If you're a fan this is a fun read just to gather some info on Baby Blue Eyes. There isn't much of a plot, and some of the information is blocked out. All-in-all a pretty good read.

A trail into the life of Frank Sinatra and his ties to the mob.The book features extensive tapping by the FBI and written reports on this crooner.Not a real exciting read so dont expect much out of it

This book was horrible. I was hoping to read a summary of the fbi files. Instead they are letters,statements and correspondence from the government about Sinatra. A real let down.

Couldn't even finish it. Very repeatious. Seemed like every page or at least every other page repeated something that was in the book earlier.
