Resumen del Editor
The Hiltons is a sweeping saga of the success - and excess - of an iconic American family. Demanding and enigmatic, patriarch Conrad Hilton's visionary ideas and unyielding will established the model for the modern luxury hotel industry. But outside the boardroom, Conrad struggled with emotional detachment, failed marriages, and conflicted Catholicism. Then there were his children: Playboy Nicky Hilton's tragic alcoholism and marriage to Elizabeth Taylor was the stuff of tabloid legend.
Barron Hilton, on the other hand, deftly handled his father's legacy, carrying the Hilton brand triumphantly into the new millennium. Eric, raised apart from his older brothers, accepted his supporting role in the Hilton dynasty with calm and quiet - a stark contrast to the boys' much younger half-sister Francesca, whose battle for recognition led her into courtrooms and conflict.
The cast of supporting players includes the inimitable Zsa Zsa Gabor, who was married to Conrad briefly and remained a thorn in his side for decades, and a host of other Hollywood and business luminaries with whom the Hiltons crossed paths and swords over the years.

What does it mean to be a Kennedy? If ever three women would be challenged and changed by marriage into a family, it would be Jacqueline Bouvier, Ethel Skakel, and Joan Bennett. None of these radiant brides could have ever been prepared for the fame, the family, and tragedies that would spring from their lives. As they struggled to cope with their husbands' infidelities, the harsh glare of the media, and the assassinations of John and Robert Kennedy, these women would learn what it meant to be sisters, reaching out to one another with comfort and consolation.

Dead is dead. Missing is gone. When Felix Brewer meets nineteen-year-old Bernadette "Bambi" Gottschalk at a Valentine's Day dance in 1959, he charms her with wild promises, some of which he actually keeps. Thanks to his lucrative - if not all legal - businesses, she and their three little girls live in luxury. But on the Fourth of July in 1976, Bambi's comfortable world implodes when Felix, facing prison, vanishes. Though Bambi has no idea where her husband - or his money - might be, she suspects one woman does: his devoted young mistress, Julie.

Add Camilla Parker-Bowles, the ultimate "other woman" into this combustible mix, and it's no wonder that Diana broke out of her royal cage into celebrity culture, where she found her own power and used it to devastating effect.

Fifteen seasons on, RHOC is an institution, along with The Real Housewives of New York, Atlanta, New Jersey, Miami, Potomac, and more.

Historia
If the Bouvier women personified beauty, style, and fashion, it was their lust for money and status that drove them to seek out powerful men, no matter what the cost to themselves or to those they stepped on in their ruthless climb to the top. Based on hundreds of new interviews with friends and family of the Bouviers, among them their own half brother, as well as letters and journals, J. Randy Taraborrelli paints an extraordinary psychological portrait of two famous sisters and their ferociously ambitious mother.

In the spring of 2006, a new kind of show premiered on Bravo: The Real Housewives of Orange County. Its stars were tanned, taut, and bedazzled; their homes were echoey California villas; and their drama was gossip-fueled, wine-drenched, and absolutely exquisite. Fifteen seasons on, RHOC is an institution, along with The Real Housewives of New York, Atlanta, New Jersey, Miami, Potomac, and more.

Historia
Titan is the first full-length biography based on unrestricted access to Rockefeller’s exceptionally rich trove of papers. A landmark publication full of startling revelations, the book indelibly alters our image of this most enigmatic capitalist. Born the son of a flamboyant, bigamous snake-oil salesman and a pious, straitlaced mother, Rockefeller rose from rustic origins to become the world’s richest man by creating America’s most powerful and feared monopoly, Standard Oil. Branded "the Octopus" by legions of muckrakers, the trust refined and marketed nearly 90 percent of the oil produced in America.

Fascinating
Fascinating story of a hotel dynasty.The story behind how the Hilton brand became what it is, is a lot more fascinating than it may at first seem. This book covers it well.

Surprisingly good and interesting story
Would you listen to The Hiltons again? Why?
I don't listen to books more than once because I have so many new ones to listen to.
What other book might you compare The Hiltons to and why?
The Patriarch: The Remarkable Life and Turbulent Times of Joseph P. Kennedy--an in-depth look at these men in their times.
Both were self-made men who had a tremendous impact on society and those around them.
What does Robert Petkoff bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
It was a compelling listen.
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
No, but I was surprised by two things. First, the extent to which Zsa Zsa Gabor, as Hilton's ex-wife, stayed in his life until his death. Second, how his heirs (including Paris and her siblings) got so rich in spite of Conrad Hilton's insistence that his fortune be left to charity. He believed strongly that everyone should earn their own fortune.
Any additional comments?
I thought this might be a gossipy-type book, but it was well- researched and written. I was fascinated by the life and story of Conrad Hilton and his family.

Lovely and engaging
This book humanized Mr Hilton and gave a brief insight into his legacy. I am sure many of his progeny would consider themselves self made yet this disproves that. How can one be self made when they stand in the shadow of such a person. I enjoyed the lightness of the tale. It was very entertaining. The smell of pure wealth oozed from the story. I got just enough dirt to not like the characters and all the glamour to be intrigued.

What an amazing legacy!
I really, enjoyed reading about the beginnings of the Hilton dynasty, it was superbly written and meticulously narrated. I found after listening to this that, people, all people; no matter how rich or poor, are fundamentally the same.
I didn't know whether to love, or hate Mr. Conrad Hilton. On one hand he was driven, ambitious and completely focused on getting ahead but, very stubborn to the point of being so, narrow minded that he was cruel to those he loved; or claimed to love.
I also respected his being a man of faith, which made him unique in the business world. But, unfortunately, usually when a person is religious and ambitious and most of all as stubborn as he was; that more often then not, leads to treating others as though you're above them. And he was like that. He believed strongly in not overindulgence as far as his family, which is commendable but, he acted as if it were a "dogma" instead of a principle to live by
I admire and respect him for his accomplishments but, ultimately I found him to be a greedy, closeminded, mizer. But, it was an excellent telling of a life.

A page turner! The narrator was excellent.
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Yes. First off the story alone is incredible. Conrad Hilton is truly unbelievable. I had no idea what a pioneer he was and all that he had accomplished.
What was one of the most memorable moments of The Hiltons?
I couldn't even pick one. Every chapter was filled with so much information and intrigue.
Which character – as performed by Robert Petkoff – was your favorite?
I liked Conrad Hilton, I could really imagine him through the pages. Zsa Zsa Gabor was also very entertaining, her personality seemed to also jump through the pages.
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
I did cry. There were a few chapters where I really felt for the characters.

liked it
I always like a good rags to riches story. I enjoyed the Catholic aspects of the book. It is neat to learn some background of famous historical hotels that still exist. The timeline or way the story flowed was a little wonky.
