Description
Arthur Sloane first met Jimmy Hoffa in 1962, and he has been fascinated by this powerful and contradictory figure ever since. Now, Sloane has written the only comprehensive biography of the late Teamster leader, having had full access to Hoffa's family, friends, and professional associates. "Hoffa" is a rich and colorful portrait of one of the most influential figures in American labor. It covers in considerable detail all the facets of Hoffa's remarkable life and death: his rise to total dominance over the largest, strongest, and wealthiest union in American history; his near-Victorian personal habits; the legal problems that plagued his later years; and, of course, the shadowy events surrounding his presumed Mafia murder in 1975. -- From publisher's description.
