This is the year-by-year history of the Beatles interspersed with rare, carefully reproduced images of Fab Four memorabilia. Written by bestselling author, musician, and Beatles expert Terry Burrows, the book documents the group’s journey from small Liverpool clubs through chart-topping records, sell-out tours and their quest for musical perfection, to their split in 1970. Devoted Beatlemaniacs will delight in the treasure trove of historic artifacts amidst the insightful text and stunning photography, including George Harrison’s 1957 Gretsch Duo Jet guitar, a 1962 flyer from the legendary Cavern Club, a ticket to the band’s final full concert at Candlestick Park, and the drumskin which appeared on the cover of Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. Hardcover, 192 pages. 11 1/2" H x 9 1/2" W.
