Product Details
- The definitive Paul McCartney biography, written with his approval by bestselling biographer Philip Norman. Since the age of twenty-one, Paul McCartney has lived one of the ultimate rock-n-roll lives played out on the most public of stages. Now, Paul's story is told by rock music's foremost biographer, with McCartney's consent and access to family members and close friends who have never spoken on the record before. Paul McCartney reveals the complex character behind the favÃade and sheds new light on his childhood -- blighted by his mother's death but redeemed by the father who introduced him to music. This is the first definitive account of Paul's often troubled partnership with John Lennon, his personal trauma after the Beatles' breakup, and his subsequent struggle to get back to the top with Wings -- which nearly got him murdered in Africa and brought him nine days in a Tokyo jail. Readers will learn about his marriage to Linda, including their much-criticized musical collaboration, and a moving account of her death. Packed with new information and critical insights, Paul McCartney will be the definitive biography of a musical legend.

Philip Norman Big and Tall Jeans Editorial Review
Paul McCartney: The Life by Philip Norman is a comprehensive 849-page biography of the legendary musician that covers his life from his parents' births to present day. The author is a good storyteller and has a great grasp on the history behind many of McCartney's most famous tracks, which he explains in detail and adds an interesting perspective to the story. The book features many unseen photos, making it an enjoyable and easy read, despite its length. While some parts of the book may feel slow, overall the author offers a mostly honest and well-rounded portrayal of the beloved Beatle. However, some readers may be disappointed in the lack of new information on McCartney, as much of the book covers already well-documented stories. Nonetheless, the book comes recommended to existing Beatles and McCartney fans who will likely enjoy the fresh insights into the life of the musical icon.
