Review

One of the best, most detailed books available on this subject. This book looks at the artist's life during the 1970s, examining his oaranoia and exposing myths about the nature of his character. Giuliano, renowed for his biogrpahical work on the Beatles, is clearly sympathetic toward the 'smart Beatle' and, to paraphrase a song by the subject, simply eants to 'give us some truth.' Beatles fanatics will be fascinated by the minutiae within, including the details of the dissolution of Apple (Library Journal)

Lennon in America paints a chilling picture. (New York Post)

An extraordinary picture of genius. (London Times)

Giuliano (Glass Onion, Two of Us, etc.) spent 16 years interviewing Beatles insiders, listening to rare audiotapes, amassing Lennon's personal correspondence and examining his much-talked-about unpublished diaries, of which Giuliano obtained a copy in 1983. (Publishers Weekly)

In real life, Lennon was nothing like his public image...if the truth counts, you will find it here. (Bookviews.Com)

The book paints a fascinating and chilling picture of Lennon's last reclusive period and challenges the official version of events. (South China Morning Post)

Exhaustive detail...fills in all the lurid detail of his perplexed state. (The Instrumentalist)

Takes a close look at the life and career of John Lennon, especially during the final years of his life. (The Citizens Voice)

The tale he tells is a unique insight into the tortured life of a flawed genius. This one will be REALLY BIG! (Jack Martin Beverly Hills)
