Hardcover. Zustand: Very good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Good. xii, [2], 399, [3] pages. DJ has some soiling and a tear at the rear. One of the rare surviving copies from the original publisher! C. David Heymann, a literary biographer turned best-selling celebrity biographer who came to wide attention in 1983 after his life o…f the heiress Barbara Hutton was withdrawn by its publisher because of factual errors. The book's original publisher, Random House, recalled and destroyed 58,000 copies of the book because of factual errors. Chief among them was Mr. Heymann's assertion that Edward A. Kantor, a Beverly Hills doctor, had prescribed excessive drugs for Ms. Hutton in 1943. Dr. Kantor, who became Ms. Hutton's physician in the late 1960s, graduated from medical school in 1954. In 1984 Mr. Heymann's biography of Ms. Hutton was republished, in what was described as a revised and corrected version, by Lyle Stuart. Trained as a literary scholar, Mr. Heymann began his career with "Ezra Pound, the Last Rower: A Political Profile," published in 1976; continued it with "American Aristocracy: The Lives and Times of James Russell, Amy, and Robert Lowell" four years later. What followed included three New York Times best-sellers: "A Woman Named Jackie" (1989), a life of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis that reached No. 1; "Liz: An Intimate Biography of Elizabeth Taylor" (1995), and "Bobby and Jackie: A Love Story" (2009), in which Mr. Heymann argued that the former first lady had an affair with her brother-in-law Robert F. Kennedy after her husband's assassination. Derived from a Kirkus review: There are two ways in which a 400-page biography of much-married heiress Barbara Hutton might rise above mere, stale gossip: it could, through brio and style and viewpoint, offer sheer entertainment; or it might, through interpretation and insight, offer an absorbing case-study in personality, in social history. Heymann's well-researched is a chronicle of taste and zest. It will attract an audience, not just for the sexual details excerpted from Hutton's private notebooks. Before her death Heymann interviewed Hutton and was given access to a a large amount of her memorabilia. Granddaughter of the founding Woolworth, niece of E. F. Hutton, little Barbara--after grandpa's death and mother's suicide--came into a trust fund of $28 million, the equivalent of about a half-billion in today's currency. Her childhood was spent with relatives, at posh schools, with her philandering father. Adolescence brought European socializing, first sex with a British tennis pro, scads of publicity, and husband #1. But, though "one reason for Barbara's meteoric rise was her ability to transform herself physically from a pretty girl with money into a luminous beauty with money," she was forever insecure, publicity-hungry, lacking in self-esteem, anorexic. So, while the press lambasted her ostentatious high-living, she moved from spouse to spouse, lover to lover. Hubby #2 was Count Reventlow, the Danish count who sired son Lance and persuaded BH to renounce US citizenship. Cary Grant was #3, providing "a fleeting moment when the aimlessness of her life seemed to dissolve. . ." And the others included a Russian cyclist/bagman, a German homosexual, a Buddhist chemist, and--for 53 days--playboy Porfirio Rubirosa, whose sexual endowments and techniques Barbara recorded. Meanwhile, there were myriad other lovers (Howard Hughes, James Dean, both detailed), She became increasingly dependent on booze and pills, erratic in behavior --while her fortune dwindled. Quite a story. First Edition [stated] Presumed first printing.
