The Beatles: Fab but Trueexamines 16 discrete stories about the Beatles that range from the merely unreal to the cosmically coincidental. Unlike the countless other Beatles books that have been written over the decades,The Beatles: Fab but Truedoes a deep dive on some of the lesser-known-but more remarkable-aspects of the lives and career of the Fab Four and their numerous and colorful associates and colleagues. You’ll learn the story of how a racehorse helped birth the Beatles after a suburban housewife pawned her family heirloom jewelry and bet it all on a long-shot racehorse in the 1954 British Derby; how Paul McCartney conjured the name Eleanor Rigby out of thin air, only to find out over a decade later that a woman by that very name died the year before any of the Beatles was born, and was buried in a Liverpool graveyard mere feet from the very spot Paul and John met in 1957; the inspiring true story of how the Beatles took a stand against racial segregation in the American South and forced the integration of Florida’s Gator Bowl for the first time in its history; and how John Lennon’s tribute to Chuck Berry by using a single borrowed line in the song "Come Together" got him entangled for a decade with a notorious music industry mobster. This book tells these and other remarkable stories in a quick-reading, fun, and authoritatively researched book.
