From Amazon:

6 July 1957; St Peter's parish church, Woolton; a garden fete; an unlikely venue for rock'n'roll revolution, but, at 4:15pm. a performance by schoolboy Skiffle band the Quarry Men (later rechristened Johnny and the Moondogs, then the Silver Beetles and finally ... well, you know who) will alter the course of musical history.

Do You Want to Know a Secret? takes a trivia-tastic look at the Beatles' life and legacy: from strange-but-true facts to urban myths shattered; from legendary radio and TV appearances to what you can hear if you listen really closely to their recordings; from important figures in the Beatles' lives to rampant surrealism in their lyrics.

It's all here - the drugs, the madness, the MBEs ... but above all the music. Packed with fascinating and offbeat facts and trivia, Do You Want to Know a Secret? is an accessible and original guide to a 1960s popular beat combo who just happened to change the world of music ... forever.

And a splendid time is guaranteed for all.

This is an unofficial guide and was researched and written without the direct involvement of any of the members of the Beatles or their estates.
