Goldsmith: Money, Women and Power

Sir James Goldsmith was one of the most intriguing figures of the twentieth century but as a billionaire with a taste for litigation he successfully ensured that, for much of his life, his background, methods and ambitions escaped far-reaching investigation. This is the first unauthorised biography of Goldsmith and it deals with every aspect of his complex life. This is a book for anyone interested in how great fortunes are built, the future of Europe, the ongoing controversy over environmental issues and – of course – how a charismatic man can juggle a succession of wives and mistresses. Has he equipped his children to exploit the fortune he has left to build a vast business empire or has he condemned them to gilded obscurity? Goldsmith tells the incredible story of an extraordinary man and the legacy he has left his family and the world.

Elvis A Personal Memoir

ELVIS Presley and the author Chris Hutchins got to know each other through a common mentor – Colonel Tom Parker. The man who managed the King of rock ‘n roll treated the writer as a confidant. And that’s what makes this book unique.  Right from the earliest pages, the Colonel reveals his true feeling about Elvis and the unusual relationship they had. In one of the many letters he wrote to Hutchins he explains for the first time why it wasn’t his fault that Elvis never travelled to perform outside the United States.  Moving as freely within the Presley circle as he was able to, the author came into close contact not only with Elvis himself but also his family, friends and staff: everybody from Elvis’s wife Priscilla, daughter Lisa, father Vernon, tour manager and closest companion Joe Esposito, show business buddies like Tom Jones – even his cook Mary Jenkins knew and talked to Chris Hutchins  who even took the Beatles to party at his home.  That’s what makes this book A Personal Memoir.
