    Francis Albert Sinatra (; December 12, 1915 – May 14, 1998) was an American singer and actor. Nicknamed the "Chairman of the Board" and "Ol' Blue Eyes", he is regarded as one of the most popular entertainers of the 20th century.[2] Sinatra is among the world's best-selling music artists, with an estimated 150 million record sales globally.[3][4]

    Born to Italian immigrants in Hoboken, New Jersey, Sinatra began his musical career in the swing era and was greatly influenced by the easy-listening vocal style of Bing Crosby.[5] He joined the Harry Jamesbig band as the vocalist in June 1939 before finding success as a solo artist after signing with Columbia Records in 1943, becoming the idol of the "bobby soxers".

    His Way: The Unauthorized Biography of Frank Sinatra

    November 1, 2020

    Fan of Frank Sinatra?

    Do not - I repeat - DO NOT read this book! And don't read the rest of my review.

    I still love his music, but man was he... a piece of trash.

    Wait up, I am getting ahead of myself. Let's do this the proper way.

    THE BOOK IN ITSELF
    The writing style is so f*cking dry. It's facts, facts, quotes, pictures, facts, quotes. I mean, this might be my second or third biography, but this one was t-e-d-i-o-u-s to read. A real task, 0 fun, all the facts. It felts like I was studying! Which is not good.

    Reading one chapter left me absolutely exhausted, hence the two months time reading this.

    WHAT IS THE BOOK ABOUT
    The title is pretty self-explanatory, but it is an unauthorized biography about Frank Sinatra, legendary crooner and thief of hearts in the 40s, 50s, dare we say maybe even de 60s.

    If you don't know his music, you are seriously missing out!
