Book summary


Adrian Mitchell, who presented the first interview with the Beatles to an international audience in 1963, selected among McCartney's scores of lyrics and poems to present this volume which includes contemplative favorites like "Yesterday" and "Eleanor Rigby" alongside lesser-known and unknown verse. Without their accompanying musical arrangements, the words stand alone.
