This is a wonderful, must-have book for a Beatlemaniac. Back in 1963, in the moment when Beatlemania was reaching its climax in the UK but wasn't really a thing in the US, Terence Spencer, photographer and chronicler from Life Magazine came back from Africa, where he was a reporter, to find his young daughter begging him to write about this gropu of brits few people knew about. He did...and the rest is history.
