Helpful Score: 4

This book by the Beatles' manager is somewhat boring and rambling, but sprinkled with great tidbits of insight into what the Fab Four were really like in the chapter called, "Them." The book is filled with shameless self-promotion and feigned modesty, and yet Epstein manages to come off as likable and gentlemanly. It is apparent that he cared a great deal for the Beatles as well as the other bands he managed. It is a shame that he died so young, and one can't help but wonder if Beatles' history would have been greatly altered if the man who promoted them to fame hadn't passed all too soon.
