Advance praise for Sinatra: The Chairman : "The meatiness of the material justifies the length of the author's second (and concluding) volume of his biography of Frank Sinatra (1915-1998). Just as his subject matured into a far more compelling artist than the one who had elicited squeals from bobby-soxers, the follow-up to Kaplan's Frank: The Voice (2010) is far more substantial than that initial volume.... An appropriately big book for an oversized artistic presence." -- Kirkus Reviews, starred review

Synopsis
Just in time for the Chairman's centennial, the endlessly absorbing sequel to James Kaplan's bestselling Frank: The Voice --which completes the definitive biography that Frank Sinatra, justly termed the "Entertainer of the Century," deserves and requires. Like Peter Guralnick on Elvis, Kaplan goes behind the legend to give us the man in full, in his many guises and aspects: peerless singer, (sometimes) accomplished actor, business mogul, tireless lover, and associate of the powerful and infamous. In 2010's Frank: The Voice , James Kaplan, in rich, distinctive, compulsively readable prose, told the story of Frank Sinatra's meteoric rise to fame, subsequent failures, and reinvention as a star of live performance and screen. The story of "Ol' Blue Eyes" continues with Sinatra: The Chairman , picking up the day after he claimed his Academy Award in 1954 and had reestablished himself as the top recording artist. Sinatra's life post-Oscar was astonishing in scope and achievement and, occasionally, scandal, including immortal recordings almost too numerous to count, affairs ditto, many memorable films (and more than a few stinkers), Rat Pack hijinks that mesmerized the world with their air of masculine privilege, and an intimate involvement at the intersection of politics and organized crime that continues to shock and astound with its hubris. James Kaplan has orchestrated the wildly disparate aspects of Frank Sinatra's life and character into an American epic--a towering achievement in biography of a stature befitting its subject.

    Packaging and shipping were perfect. The item arrived with no damage. The price was good and looked exactly from the photos. Even though photos came with measurements....it was smaller than expected. No faults of no one. Seller was fantastic with all her updates. Definitely will buy from again.

    The seller was quick to respond when I encountered an issue with my order and immediately took steps to try and resolve it. They were communicative, polite, and went above and beyond to make things right — even issuing a refund without hesitation. It's clear they care about their reputation and about doing right by their buyers. I truly appreciate the way the situation was handled and would absolutely buy from them again.

    Fantastic Read

    Who says there is nothing new under the sun? Another book about Frank Sinatra? Gimme a break. But wait! This one is THE final word. More even-handed and more accurate than the other tomes—including Kitty Kelley’s(whom he updates and corrects in many places)—this book by James Kaplan is simply “the bomb.” And I have read them all!

    Good reading and it will hold your attention.

    It was good but at times it went into much detail that didn`t need to be in the book.
