Description

This reference work details Frank Sinatra's creative accomplishments and includes biographical information as it relates to his art. Of possible interest to both researchers and fans, this book provides access to data collected from disparate sources, including the first published listing of Internet resources. The information is divided into three parts, each arranged alphabetically, and covers his music, film, radio and television appearances, and his concerts and humanitarian contributions. A bibliography designed to provide information on locating additional resources is also included. The alphabetical arrangements of song entries includes information on the songs, record labels, arrangers and recording dates. Three appendices at the end of the volume provide additional information about the recordings. The encyclopaedia concludes with the details of awards Sinatra has received.
