This book tells about the life and incredible success of Condé Nast, the founder of the largest fashion media empire Condé Nast. For some, he was a businessman with amazing flair, for others, a stern workaholic. Condé always tried to stay in the shadows, which gave rise to many rumors, myths and even legends. Who really was this painfully modest man, who is considered the prototype of the main character of the novel "The Great Gatsby"?

Journalist Jerome Kagan conducted an outstanding investigation to reveal the numerous secrets of the father of glamour.

You will learn:
- How did a man who was not interested in fashion manage to create a huge empire of glossy magazines?
- Why was his salary more than the US President's at 34?
- Why did he gather 200 people at his home twice a month, while he hid in the bedroom?
- Why did Condé Nast not communicate with the editor-in-chief of Vogue for 10 years?
