Download Empire: The Life, Legend, and Madness of Howard Hughes AudioBook Free
Howard Hughes resided one of the biggest, most heroic, misunderstood, mystical, bizarre, and tragic lives in American record. Here at previous, in a uniquely full and brilliantly noted biography with a Pulitzer Prize-winning investigative team, the mythology that surrounded that life is disentangled from the truth. Hughes had been different. Raised by overprotective parents, pathologically fearful of bacteria, in awe of his daddy, unable to socialize, he grew into a man ruled by madness. Certainly his riches set him aside. But he was also troublesome. Orphaned and a millionaire at eighteen, Hughes repudiated his family members, seized control of the Hughes Tool Company, the linchpin of his fortune, and went on to become flamboyant movie developer, holder of several world aviation documents, principal owner of Trans World Airlines, a critically-important protection builder, Hollywood's most pursued, and elusive, bachelor, and partner of the United States government. This is an epic biography of epic body, who bestrode the world just like a colossus, yet cannot master himself.
