From the publisher:

They captured the hearts of a generation. The whole English-speaking world knew the names John, Paul, George and Ringo. Now you can relive the lives and careers of the Beatles as seen through the popular British music publications of the 1960s.

The Beatles received more media attention than any other rock band in history. This book explores their year-by-year exploits as they grew from a local phenomenon to international superstars. Included are many personal interviews with the Beatles. You will see that their vibrant, honest personalities were just as important to us as their music.

From the Cavern Club to their conquest of America, the Beatles were the leading wave of the “British Invasion,” and they set the standards for the music world. The Beatles: The Press Reports is more than a trip down memory lane; it is the history of the Beatles as witnessed by the insiders of the British press

From Amazon:

This collection of historical media pieces and interviews chronicles the lives and careers of the Beatles as seen through the lens of popular British music publications such as Disc and Music Echo, Melody Maker, Mersey Beat and Record Mirror from 1961-1970, when they received more media attention than any other rock band in history. As this era of the Beatles past is explored year by year, the importance of the band's first shows in Liverpool and the subsequent attention it drew to other Merseyside bands (those from Mersey County, Northwest England) becomes clear. Information on the Beatles first trip to America and the controversies surrounding their break-up are also included in this nostalgic trip down memory lane to the time when musicians from Liverpool began making music history.
