Comprehensive and meticulously researched, The Beatles Book will be an invaluable and essential guide for every fan of The Beatles, combining research and scholarship with a fun and chatty style.

Divided into four sections – Songs, People, Places and Performances – Hunter Davies brings every influence that shaped the incredible Beatles’ phenomenon vividly to life. But rather than simply sticking to an alphabetised formula, Hunter and his team have decided to do something which has not been attempted before: rate everything to do with The Beatles to show how important or influential or meaningful the song, the place, the person or the gig was in the history, pattern or content of their lives and creations.
