A Hard Day's Write: The Stories Behind Every Beatles Song

Author(s): Steve Turner

Music

Who was "Just seventeen" and made Paul's heart go "Boom"? Was there really an Eleanor Rigby? Where's Penny Lane? In "A Hard Day's Write", Steve Turner shatters many well-worn myths and adds a new dimension to the Fab Four's rich legacy by investigating the events immortalised in The Beatles' music and now occupying a special niche in popular culture's collective imagination. This title is updated for 2012 to include new information on many songs, plus brand-new stories.
