If you know anything at all about the Beatles, AVOID THIS BOOK!! The number of factual errors are unbelievable. It seems that the writer knows the basic story and has then made up events to fill the gaps. There are to many examples to list, but, for example, does he really think that Mike McCartney is Paul's OLDER brother? If you want a factual and well written Beatles book there are plenty to choose from. Do not waste your money on this one.
