About this listen

In the best-selling tradition of Henry Bushkin's Johnny Carson comes The Way It Was: My Life with Frank Sinatra, a candid and eye-opening inside look at the final decades of Sinatra's life, told by his longtime manager and friend, Eliot Weisman.

Eliot Weisman worked with Frank Sinatra from 1975 up until Sinatra's death in 1998 and became one of the singer's most trusted confidants and advisers. In this book Weisman tells the story of the final years of the iconic entertainer from within his exclusive inner circle - featuring original photos and filled with scintillating revelations that fans of all Sinatra stages - from the crooner to the Duets - will love.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your Library section along with the audio.
