2.0 out of 5 stars Racked With Errors, August 13, 2005
This book has some good points. It provides interesting information about people involved with the Beatles.

However, it is racked with glaring errors that are EMBARRASSING! The worst ones are as follows:

1. George and Louise are listed as parents of the Harrison children. NOT TRUE! Harold and Louise were the senior Harrisons. George, the father of his own siblings? I DON'T THINK SO!

2. George's year of birth was given as 1944 when he was born in 1943. His brother Peter's year of birth was given as 1943 when he was born in 1940!

There is just no excuse for this kind of sloppy reporting. How this got past the editor's desk I'll never know.

3.0 out of 5 stars Read it with a red pen, June 11, 2003
By A Customer
This is an extremely comprehensive book that is riddled with errors. For someone who knew the Beatles so well it's amazing how many mistakes there are. True Beatles fans will have a hard time resisting the urge to correct them.
