I bought this book back in 1992 when I first became a Queen fanatic. There are some great pictures and quotes, along with kind of an abbreviated history of the band. It concludes with a list of all of Queen's music releases up until 1992. It is a beautiful book that is well worth the money. You will look at it again and again.

This Queen book is absolutely fabulous! It is perfect in nearly every way. It is basically a visual timeline of the band, from its subtle beginnings to its flashy end (or is it?). The pictures alone are worth the price, but the ingenius quotes from band members simply makes this one of the best Queen books available. Look for Freddie in his Superman shirt!

This book brings you right along side the band and their legendary music. If you like queen, this is a must have for your library!

Although I already had 4 books on Queen and Freddie Mercury, I am so glad I purchased this book.

It is a beautifully written and illustrated book, brimming with information, and chronologically accurate. Buy it!

You won't be disappointed!

It has a permanent place on my coffee table along with " Queen the Ultimate Illustrated History of the Crown

Kings of Rock and Roll" by Phil Sutcliffee.

Very fast shipping and a great book,has been enjoyed by me and my son.

great photos and info.

I first started listening to Queen back around 1987, having a copy of "The Game" that a cousin gave me. But it wasn't until 1992 that I became a fan, and I bought this book to learn about the band. It's got a lot of good information and pictures, and I recommend it to any Queen fan.

There is one aspect of the band that isn't touched on in the book, and that is their debauchery! Even though I've been a fan for almost 15 years, only recently did I learn that these guys were real hellraisers! I'd read a magazine article after "Innuendo" came out that mentioned the wild release party they held for it, but I had no idea how hard these guys partied. Sick and twisted!

But anyway, that one, minor, misgiving aside, I recommend this book. I wish there were more books available on Queen.
