The Encyclopedia of Beatles People

This work focuses upon the people involved in the Beatles movement. At Liverpool college of art in 1958 three teenagers vowed to make Liverpool famous - John Lennon with his music, Stuart Sutcliffe with his paintings and Bill Harry with his writings. Harry was the first person to write about the Beatles in his "Merseyside Beat" newspaper in 1961 and continued to follow their progress close up for 35 years. Harry provides a comprehensive guide to the group with back ground information and controversial revelations about the people behind the band. The subjects are set out in an A to Z format for ease of access. Both minor and major characters have individual entries.
