From Amazon:

One of the great stories of the 1960s is that of four young men with Irish backgrounds who produced music that is unique and timeless. From the day The Beatles arrived in Dublin at the height of Beatlemania in 1963 and Paul McCartney announced it's great to be home , the Fab Four never hid their love for Ireland. They played two further gigs in Belfast within twelve months. By the end of that decade John had bought an island off the Mayo coast, and in the 1970s John and Paul were writing songs about the troubled events in Northern Ireland. And yet there has never been a book about their Irish connections. From George's family originating in County Wexford to Paul choosing Castle Leslie in Monaghan for his wedding to Heather Mills, it's all here, including exclusive insights into what really went on at Paul's wedding reception and what Stella thought of being there. This is not a music biography but simply details every Irish connection The Beatles have with Ireland, from their family trees to their concerts and the many visits they've made, not across the universe, but across the Irish Sea. It is based on exclusive interviews, fifteen years of research and first-hand accounts by people that spent time with them. With prime Irish Beatle locations, an Irish charts discography, the Irish fan club, and a detailed list of Beatles-related programmes on Irish radio and TV over the years, not to mention exclusive unpublished photographs, this is the legacy for Ireland of The Beatles.
