The Beatles Anthology

by Chronicle Books

CHRONICLE BOOKS | September 1, 2002 | Trade Paperback

The international best-seller is now in paperback! From their years growing up in Liverpool through their ride to fame to their ultimate breakup, heres the inside story. Interwoven with The Beatles own memories are the recollections of such associates as road manager Neil Aspinall, producer George Martin, and spokesman Derek Taylor. <I>The Beatles Anthology</I> is a once-in-a-lifetime volume: warm, frank, funny, poignant, and bold-just like the music thats been a part of so many of our lives. <I>The Beatles Anthology</I> is, for the first time, the story of The Beatles by The Beatles. Created with the full cooperation of Paul, George, Ringo, and Yoko Ono Lennon, it also includes the words of John, painstakingly compiled from sources worldwide. <I>The Beatles Anthology</I> is, in effect, The Beatles autobiography. <I>The Beatles Anthology</I> features over 1300 images, most previously unpublished. Paul, George, Ringo, and Yoko Ono Lennon all opened their own archives just for this project, as did Apple, EMI, and others long associated with The Beatles, allowing the unprecedented release of photographs, documents, and other memorabilia from their homes and offices. The result is an extraordinary wealth of visual material brimming on each and every page.

    Beatles Fans Beware

    Beware, if you are a Beatles fan this book can seriously cut into the time you have available for family and friends. I received this book at Christmas and wasn't able to put the sucker down for over a week. I thought I'd skim most of it, look at the photos and read the occaisional excerpt but found myself devouring every written word. Full of personal insight. Beatlemania from the inside. Highly recommended.

    The fellas have always put out the best quality products. (perhaps the Let It Be expereince would be the only exception) From the quality of the book itself to the tremendous insight into their private lives, this is an unabashed first rate book. Being a songwriter, I especially enjoyed the behind the scenes info on the writing of individual songs. I salute you...John, Paul, George and Ringo. You've brought much joy into my life. Thanks fellas!

    Finally a complete book about the Beatles by the members themselves. It was the most informative and entertaining book I have ever read about the group. I especailly enjoyed the personal touch.

    I haven't even begun to read this book yet. I just got it in the mail. I'm an extreme Beatlemaniac, so there's not all that much in this book which will be news, other than the pictures. They alone are worth the price of the book. If your copy of Schaffner's "Beatles Forever" or of the "Imagine" coffee table book is worn out, if you're interested in the Beatles, or even if you're not, this book is extremely important and excellently presented. I will leave another review of the text itself once the big read is complete (should be by this time next week). Give Peace A Chance!
