Frank Sinatra famously shunned the press, yet in 1964, at the height of his career, he gave Life photographer John Dominis unprecedented access to his personal and professional life. Dominis shadowed Sinatra across the country for three months, generating more than 4,000 images of Ol' Blue Eyes, but only a few were used for the Life cover story. Featuring 150 of the most revealing of those pictures, almost all unpublished, this book creates a deeply personal portrait of the man behind the icon. Startling in their intimacy, these mesmerizing photographs offer a compelling portrait of America's greatest popular singer.
