Howard Hughes by Donald L. Barlett
His Life and Madness
A sweeping investigative biography that traces the rise of a brilliant but deeply troubled industrialist from Texas oil-heir to aviation pioneer and Hollywood mogul, documenting his obsessive drive, eccentric reclusiveness, and progressive mental deterioration. The narrative exposes the growing power of his business empire, his daring innovations in aviation and film, sensational romantic entanglements, and the legal and political maneuvers—and opportunistic associates—that both protected and preyed upon him as his personal life unraveled.
