From Conrad to Paris: A Drama of Wealth, Power, and Privilege
by Jerry Oppenheimer
This intimate, shocking--and thoroughly unauthorized--portrait of the Hiltons chronicles the family’s amazing odyssey from poverty and obscurity to glory and glamour.
"The reader will gasp to learn of the Hilton men's sexual athletics and shudder to hear that such a privileged family could be so shockingly uneducated and uncouth." - PW.
