Summary:
"The story of Silvio Berlusconi, the billionaire media mogul turned
prime
minster who has dominated Italian life for the past twenty years. His life story, warts and all. By 2015, Forbes magazine ranked him as the 141st richest man in the world with a net worth of US $8.0 billion. From the bunga-bunga parties to his most secret moments with world leaders. Anecdotes and revelations involving Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, Geroge W. Bush, Vladimir Putin, Mickhail Gorbachev, Tony Blair, Nicolas Sarkozy, Angela Merkel, and many others. Berlusconi's incredible rise to power started from nothing. A self-created man, he began his career selling vacuum cleaners and working as a cruise ship crooner. He became a real estate tycoon in the '70s, started a commercial television network and turned AC Milan into a world-class soccer club. And that was all before he survived the squalid swampland of Italian politics to became
prime
minister who has not only served the longest in Italian history, but also has generated the most controversy of arguably any world leader today. After years of successfully brushing off sex scandals, allegations of corruption and political setbacks, Silvio Berlusconi's luck finally out when he was convicted of tax fraud in 2013"--Provided by publisher.
