The style is clear and interesting. I skipped over many pages, but that is a personal preference that many people will not choose to copy.The author describes with loving care every detail of the decor of Onassis' yacht. I doubt that any yacht has ever had so large a part of a biography dedicated to it.However, midway through the book there is a long discussion of Aristotle Onassis' fascination with whaling. He liked to point out to guests that the barstools on his yacht were upholstered in the foreskins of whales. His whaling ships killed hundreds, probably thousands, of these highly intelligent beings that have never preyed on the human race. My respect for him plummeted then and there.His slavish adoration of a moron like Winston Churchill is just one more indication of his worship of the British upper classes and of his slobbering need for their approval.How surprised he must have been when he discovered that Death would not give him a pass despite his unimaginable wealth. Apparently no one had ever told him that the human race is just a descendant of a tribe of lowland chimpanzees. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Compact, readable, overly gossipy at the end ! *by J***Y on September 26, 2023* This compact readable biography of Aristotle Onassis from his birth in Smyrna to his 1975 death in Paris captures his tenacity, individuality, business acumen, shipping ventures and real estate deals and his penchant for womanizing. Reading like People magazine, the later half labors over his affair, then marriage to Jackie O, her thoughts, his thoughts, with gossipy name dropping excess which detracts from the substance of the book. ### ⭐⭐⭐ Onassis the man *by S***A on November 7, 2016* Lacked a lot of details on his life .. his terrible treatment of his daughter and also it was he whomade Monaco ... it was bankrupt until he came along and also introduced it to the big stars ofHollywood .. it was even said it was he who introduced Grace Kelly to the Prince .. she an American\heiress as well as film star .. I was surprised to learn how well he and Jackie got along .. theperception has been she only married him for the money and privacy he could provide ... but herewe see she really cared about him. ## Frequently Bought Together - Nycreative Publishing Onassis: An Extravagant Life - St. Martin's Griffin The King of Oil: The Secret Lives of Marc Rich --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/22146833-onassis-an-extravagant-life-paperback-august-1-2013](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/22146833-onassis-an-extravagant-life-paperback-august-1-2013) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-06-07*
