Publisher's Summary
Bing Crosby was a real legend. Celebrated across the country and beyond, he was essentially America’s first superstar. With catchy tunes, a catchy name, and a laid-back, charming personality that everyone just seemed to love, Crosby was a star both on and off stage.
Bing Crosby arrived in California as a young man with nothing and rapidly progressed to superstardom. Such words may seem like an exaggeration, but they’re really not. During the course of his prolific career, he starred in more than 70 films and recorded some 1,600 songs. Soldiers coming back from World War II would later attest to the fact that Bing Crosby could be heard at posts as far away as India; his music sucked in just about anyone who heard it. This book takes an in-depth look at the life behind all of that great music.
