From the back cover: All Roads Lead To Lennon is a loosely-linked collection of stories that delves deeper and in more detail into the history of the ancestors, influences, and places in the life of John Lennon than any previous work has dared to do. The result of a thorough investigation of genealogical and newspaper archives, firsthand accounts, and a new assessment of existing works, Beatles’ historian, Philip Kirkland, has taken the story back more than 200 years, busting some myths, finding some surprising coincidences, and even unearthing some “new” members of the direct Lennon family along the way. Each story stands up on its own merit, whether it be the most complete story ever told about the house that influenced one of Lennon’s best-known songs, the wartime event that involved the ancestors of two unrelated men who would have a big impact on the life of the future Beatle, the extraordinary life of a great-uncle more like Lennon than he at first seems, or the earliest musical steps of the great musician and songwriter himself. Each story involves characters and places worthy of their own book but, in the end, All Roads Lead To Lennon. Images
