Tune in by Mark Lewisohn

Now in paperback, Tune In is the New York Times bestseller by the world's leading Beatles authority - the first volume in a groundbreaking trilogy about the band that revolutionized music

The Beatles have been a part of our lives for half a century and will undoubtedly continue to be. Despite this, their music continues to excite, their influence resonates, and their popularity endures. New generations discover and love them, and while many other great musicians come and go, the Beatles remain unsurpassed.

So, who were these folks, and how did it all go down?

The 'Beatles tale' is everywhereTold incorrectly from the start, repeated in every possible way, and constantly robbed of its context, this is a phenomenon in desperate need of a bright new approachIn his series All These Years, world-renowned Beatles historian Mark Lewisohn pushes the Refresh button to tell the entire story as it's never been told or known beforeHere is a full and accurate biog

Tune In is the first of three books that explore and explain a era that is by definition lesser-known: the formative pre-fame years, the adolescent years, the Liverpool and Hamburg years - in many respects the most fascinating and wonderful period of them all. The Beatles come together here in all their originality, attitude, style, speed, charisma, appeal, daring, and honesty, the tools with which they're working.

Tune In is a magisterial work, an independent biography that combines energy, clarity, objectivity, authority, and insight, using immaculate research and resources. The prose is anti-myth, tight, and authoritative, just like the Beatles themselves.

Here's the actual Beatles story: Toss out all you think you know and start over.

Lewis, Linda: - Linda Lewis began her writing career in 1990 when she signed up for a correspondence course. One assignment was to write about something she knew about, so she chose tropical fish. That first piece went on to be published and, over the next seven years, she wrote more and more articles about tropical fish for magazines in the UK, USA and South Africa. When her husband died in 1997, she began to switch her focus to fiction, selling her first story to Take a Break magazine in 1998. That was when she started to use the pen name, Catherine Howard. Since 2003, she has been working full time as a writer, concentrating mainly on short stories. Her stories have been published in many women's magazines, including Best, Chat, That's Life and Woman, as well as magazines in Sweden, Norway, Denmark and Australia. She has lost count of how many stories she has sold, but guesses the number is somewhere between two and three hundred. In 2008, Linda was given a column in Writers' Forum, entitled Short Story Success, where she passes on tips to other fiction writers, and tells them about her life as a working writer. In 2011, her first novel, The Magic of Fishkeeping, was published. In the same year, she began to move away from fiction and switch her focus to non-fiction, producing three short writers' guides, and working on an autobiography. She also runs workshops for writers, including workshops at the Swanwick Writers' Summer School, and at the NAWG Festival of Writing. Linda offers a critique service and tailor-made writing lessons, helps organise and judge short story competitions and gives talks to all kinds of groups on a variety of subjects.
