Howard Hughes, once the wealthiest man in the world. Handsome. Daring. Reclusive. Movie producer. Aviation pioneer. Then one fateful day his plane crashed and his world was one of pain. He found relief in drugs and came to rely on them more and more. He became reclusive and inaccessible. He surrounded himself with people to help him create an asylum against the outside world. But they turned it into an asylum of another kind. Hughes turned to the one man he knew he could trust to help him preserve his privacy and retain his freedom. That man became Howard's most trusted confidant and friend. Jack Real. Real tried valiantly to save Hughes from himself and his guards. It was an impossible job but one that Jack G Real gave his all to accomplish. This is his story.
