Bio of an enigmatic, fascinating, mysterious, contradictory, multifaceted man who is so elusive that his photograph purportedly has sold at $1,000 a print. It is a strange, Horatio Alger saga of a diligent, inventive, ambitious lad who parlayed a million dollars into a billion and a half -- and lost money every step of the way. In this volume, Albert B. Gerber has carefully, fearlessly, and honestly searched out the facts that reveal the man behind the legend. Owned Northeast Airlines, Hughes Aircraft Company, Hughes Tool Company, ETC.
