Where Did John, Paul and George try to post Ringo into a letterbox? Which railway stations were locations in 'A Hard Day's Night?' 'Where was 'I Am The Walrus' filmed? They may have been born in Liverpool, but London was the Beatles’ home away from home; the place where they really grew into their roles as international musical and cultural icons. Subsequently, all over the city, there are sites which represent a significant shared moment in the history of the band, and that of London. "The Beatles London" is a celebration of those places, both a guide book and a treasure trove of Beatles' nuggets. This unique and fascinating book details how London and the Beatles were, and always be, connected together at the time of a great social and cultural shift. Originally published in 1994, this new edition has been full updated and reformatted, and includes a section on 'Beatles walks' to take across the capital.

They were born in Liverpool and came of age in Hamburg, but it was London where the Beatles became international icons matched only by the swinging city itself. From the chambers of Abbey Road to the rooftops of Savile Row, the Beatles are as much a part of London as Her Majesty, the Houses of Parliament and Hyde Park. They defined their times and this was their turf. Authoritative, detailed and entertaining, The Beatles’ London places the world’s greatest group in the fascinating context of the world’s greatest city—the place they worked, played, and called home. A must-have for Beatles’ fans, this up-to-date guidebook includes special sections for record sleeves and film locations, rare photographs, detailed maps and scores of fascinating entries.
