Note "Originally published as Fall: the Mystery of Robert Maxwell in Great Britain in 2021 by Viking."--Title page verso.
Summary Recounts Maxwell's rise and fall and rise and fall again. Preston weaves backwards and forwards in time to examine the forces that shaped Maxwell, including his childhood as a Jew in occupied Eastern Europe through his failed political ambitions in the 1960s which ended in accusations of financial double-dealing, and his resurrection as a media mogul--and on to the family legacy he left behind, including his daughter Ghislaine Maxwell.
Subject Maxwell, Robert, 1923-1991.
