The Complete History of Black Sabbath by Joel Mciver

Be amazed by the complete illustrated history of the band that invented metal, from their inception in 1968 to their final tour in 2016.
"What makes this a great thorough read is that it talks about the entire history of the band (also in pictures)Sabbath and Ozzy solo, to the Dio albums, the album Ian Gillan sang on – Born Again and Glenn Hughes – Seventh Star which was supposed to be an Iommi solo album, to the terribly overlooked, underappreciated Tony Martin years, to their reunion with Bill Ward in the late ‘90s, and current farewell tour minus Ward." * Bravewords.com *
"It's a beautiful book — plenty of excellent and never-before-seen pics...Nothing quite says Christmas like Black Sabbath, so this book should be a welcome present under the tree for that metal fan in the family." * TheDay.com *

"The Complete History of Black Sabbath: What Evil Lurks may look like a coffee table book at first, with it's giant size and massive, incredible photos, but it is much more than that. This book is a beautifully written look at all facets of the bands past. Every album. Every lineup. Every high and every low. It feels almost voyeuristic looking in at such a detailed account of the bands history."
