He is at the event of his daughter's wedding. Michael, Vito's youngest son and a decorated WWII Marine is also present at the wedding. Michael seems to be uninterested in being a part of the family business. Vito is a powerful man, and is kind to all those who give him respect but is ruthless against those who do not. But when a powerful and treacherous rival wants to sell drugs and needs the Don's influence for the same, Vito refuses to do it.

Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. Fine unread condition dark brown boards/black cloth spine/gold spine lettering contained in a fine condition non price-clipped photographic dust jacket. Includes Author Dedication; Introduction; Additional Photo Permissions; and About the Coauthor. Profusely illustrated with a section of black-and-white photographic plates, additional black-and-white photographs, a preliminary section of black-and-white photographic plates entitled: "Marlon Brando Family Album: My Early Years", and photographic front and rear endpapers. "This is Marlon Brando's own story, and his reason for telling it is best revealed in his own words: "I have always considered my life a private affair and the business of no one beyond my family and those I love. Except for moral and political issues that aroused in me a desire to speak out, I have done my utmost throughout my life, for the sake of my children and myself, to remain silent. But now, in my seventieth year, I have decided to tell the story of my life as best I can, so that my children can separate the truth from the myths that others have created about me, as myths are created about everyone swept up in the turbulent and distorting maelstrom of celebrity in our culture." To date there have been over a dozen books written about Marlon Brando, and almost all of them have been inaccurate, based on hearsay, sensationalist or prurient in tone. Now, at last, fifty years after his first appearance on-stage in New York City, the actor has told his life story, with the help of Robert Lindsey. The result is an extraordinary book, at once a funny, moving, absorbing, ribald, angry, self-deprecating and completely frank account of the career, both on-screen and off, of the greatest actor of our time. Anyone who has ever enjoyed a Brando film will relish this book." - from the inner front jacket flap.…
