"The most daring literary caper of all time." -- Newsweek
Oil tycoon, record-breaking aviator, Oscar-winning moviemaker, and the lover of dozens of Hollywood movie stars, billionaire Howard Hughes not only bought the favors of U.S. presidents - he tried to buy the city of Las Vegas!
In his twilight years he became a recluse, but many believed that he had died and his business associates had stolen his billions. Enter Clifford Irving. "Howard Hughes is alive, and wants me to write the story of his life."
"There’s no doubt about it. This is the authentic voice of Howard Hughes. It’s unique, it can’t be duplicated. This is his autobiography." — Frank McCulloch, Bureau Chief, Time Magazine
"McGraw-Hill has in its possession a tremendous amount of documentation which indicates beyond the shadow of a doubt that this is the authentic autobiography."— Harold McGraw, Jr, Chairman, McGraw-Hill Book Co.
"It’s the most exciting and revelatory first-person story that Life will ever have published." — Ralph Graves, Managing Editor, Life Magazine
