Paul McCartney: Many Years From Now

This book was surprisingly good and had some new information of interest, written by an author that knows what he is doing. The Biography about Paul by Philip Norman is better, but this one comes quite close. Recommended!

Essential reading, of course, as all of the Beatles output is commented upon by Paul, and much detail of his life is revealed, but the book is also somewhat boringly written. It only trancends ground level when the writer, Barry Miles, who refers to himself as 'Miles', talks about himself, their mutual friends and their bookshop related endeavours. Only then, some irony and lightheartednes is introduced. The rest is a fairly serious writing job. And very strange it is, for all the childhood detail we're given, that we only get to hear that McCartney has a sister when we're over halfway into the book.

5 stars! Can't really say much more than that to be fair......

Item as described and fast delivery.

If you're interested in The Beatles and where the ideas for their songs came from, this is a very interesting read. I'm sure the facts could be disputed by other individuals, but as the author, Barry Miles, writes in a conversational manner (mostly McCartney's narrative) it is very easy to read. Recommended.

Excellent hard cover book. Quick delivery.

one of the best biographies i have read about any of the fab four

Interesting read, but very long.
