The Hiltons The True Story of an American Dynasty

THE HILTONS is a sweeping saga of the success-and excess-of an iconic American family. Demanding and enigmatic, patriarch Conrad Hiltons visionary ideas and unyielding will established the model for the modern luxury hotel industry. Then there were his children: Playboy Nicky Hiltons tragic alcoholism and marriage to Elizabeth Taylor was the stuff of tabloid legend.
