Howard Hughes: The Untold Story Audiobook (Unabridged)

" A very good book about a very intriguing figure. "

" Interesting details of his eccentric lifestyle and aviation/movie producing obsession. "

" what an interesting, tormented life this man had! very entertaining to read about the young playboy hughes and then the reclusiveness in his later years. "

" I didn't know anything about him and he certaintly was an interesting (and tormented) man "

" This is one of my favorite reads. He was absolutely insane, but fascinating. "

" Currently about 1/4 way through, but I am really enjoying it. The author seems to have done a great deal of research into HH's life, including interviewing people who knew him, which adds depth to this biography. "

" What a fruit-cake, but interesting to say the least. "

" After watching the Aviator I was interested in reading a biography of Howard Hughes. The movie glosses over many facts and changes events. The true story is even more engrossing. You have to wonder if in our current society he would have been as successful at avoiding scandal. "

" I knew after only a few hundred pages this was a fascinating read. I don't remember Mr Hughes at all, but he was one WEIRD dude! "

" This guy was brilliant, but oh-so-weird. "

" Fascinatingly cuckoo! "

" I felt particulary sorry for the end days of Howard Hughes when he was the captive of disreputable characters. His billions didn't save him from a fate that haunts many American seniors -- pernicious neglect. "

" I don't usually like biographies - I find them dry and hard to get through. But Hughes was an interesting enough character that I read the entire book in a few sittings. "

" Started out reading it as a Library book. Then bought it. Only read a small amount before I had bought it. This was a very interesting book and I learned so much about Mr Hughs. "

" This was a pretty long book that took awhile to get through it but I thought it had a good insight to what HH's life was like. I learned a lot more about him than the fact that he was quite an eccentric billionare. "

" great research work that unveil the secretive spectacular life of a genial billionaire: a text book of OCD and womanizing. "

" This is a very good book so far! It is not the normal dry biography. What a crazy, interesting man! "

" a great read to learn more about the recluse that was Howard Hughes - it was a bit too long, but a worthwhile read if you're a Howard Hughes fan! "

" Amazing, never believed what he accomplished in fight, engineering and in the bedroom. "

" I read this in 1 1/2 weeks, after watching "The Aviator". Fascinating life. Pathetic death -- held captive and starved by his Mormon handlers. The book suggests that he was killed by them, rather than having the Feds find out what they had done. "

" This book is total sensationalist journalism, and paints an entertaining, if not entirely true, portrait of the eccentric millionaire Howard Hughes. I found that it satisfied my curiosity, but for a true fan of Hughes, I would recommend something a little better researched. "

" I knew after only a few hundred pages this was a fascinating read. I don't remember Mr Hughes at all, but he was one WEIRD dude! "

" meh, this book really really cares about howard hughes hetrosexuality. needlessly repetitive. "

" This guy was brilliant, but oh-so-weird. "
