Description:
The Money: The Battle for Howard Hughes's Billions, by James R. Phelan and Lewis Chester, who each penned earlier books on the extraordinarily eccentric tycoon, focuses on the heated competition for a piece of the notorious recluse's enormous estate following his 1976 death. In spite of his well-known predilection for control, Hughes apparently died without leaving a valid will. And despite his lifelong penchant for secrecy, his curious demise set off a string of courtroom skirmishes and corporate infighting that involved more than 1,000 people and ultimately revealed much of the bizarre behavior that continues to fascinate us.
