Publisher Description
The definitive biography of The Beatles, hailed as "irresistible" by the New York Times, "riveting" by the Boston Globe, and "masterful" by Time.
As soon as The Beatles became famous, the spin machine began to construct a myth -- one that has continued to this day. But the truth is much more interesting, much more exciting, and much more moving -- the highs and the lows, the love and the rivalry, the awe and the jealousy, the drugs, the tears, the thrill, and the magic to never be repeated. In this vast, revelatory, exuberantly acclaimed, and bestselling book, Bob Spitz has written the biography for which Beatles fans have long waited.
Customer Reviews
Comprehensive and Well-Researched
Well-researched, especially their earliest days with over a 1/3 of the book covering the pre-1963 period. The book is full of footnotes and explanatory comments, but there were still too many unattributed observations that felt more like Spitz’s surmises than anything rooted in what may or may not have occurred.
Very detailed history of the Beatles
A very detailed and engaging read. Filled in many of gaps in information I had of the Beatles. Had a hard time putting it he book down.
