Preface by Michael Braun, November 1995 .

From the back cover:

"This is as close to a Beatles ride-along as you'll get. The Beatle wit is depicted better here than in any other book....This is your chance to crack the fold."

- Rolling Stone

The classic behind-the-scenes story of The Beatles first British tour. The year is 1963. Love Me Do is The Beatles first hit single, closely followed by Please Please Me, which reached No. 1. John, Paul, George, and Ringo celebrate their new-found success with a hectic six-week tour, briefly interrupted by a historic live appearance at the Royal Variety Performance at the London Palladium.

It is the beginning of "Beatlemania", and American writer Michael Braun is there as the drama unfolds. Eavesdropping on The Beatles' private conversations. Recording every last joke. And running with them to safety from hordes of screaming fans.

A year later, The Beatles are the world's biggest pop group. Distant, untouchable, and fabulously rich. Love Me Do! is there to record for posterity what it - and they - were really like in those extraordinary early days.

"[Braun is] a gifted reported whose fly-on-the-wall account prefigured many later scenes in A Hard Day's Night."

- The Guardian

"For insight into The Beatles' personalities it is unparalleled, and for those seeking the full flavour of the period in which Beatlemania began, it is engrossing and, in my view, unsurpassed."

- Mark Lewisohn, author of The Complete Beatles Chronicle
