Zusammenfassung:"In this volume of new essays, a gathering of distinguished historians, journalists, and critics explore Frank Sinatra's impact on American culture, addressing a number of facets of this deeply complicated man. Topics include Sinatra's civil rights activism, his political swing from left to right, his relationship to ethnic stereotypes of Italian Americans, and his contribution to an American model of masculinity. The insights in these essays place Sinatra at the fulcrum of many controversial and timely issues, helping to explain why his presence continues to loom so large in the American imagination."--BOOK JACKET.
