A newly revised paperback edition, this book takes a nostalgic and affectionate look at Britain’s most famous pop group, from their early days in the 1960s to the break-up of the band, with the aid of almost 300 photographs. The best-selling band in history, with sales of over a billion, The Beatles – John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr – have had more number-one albums and sold more singles in the UK than any other act and achieved more sales in the USA than any other artist. They became one of the most critically acclaimed acts in popular music.
