Set in the vibrant Industrial Age and filigreed with family drama and epic ambition, "Crosley" chronicles one of the great untold tales of the twentieth century.

Their pioneering inventions -- from the first mass-produced economy car to the push-button radio -- and breakthroughs in broadcasting and advertising made them both wealthy and famous, as did their ownership of the Cincinnati Reds. But as their fortunes grew, so did Powel's massive ego, which demanded he own eight mansions and seven yachts at the height of the Great Depression.
