SHOUT!

First published in 1981, many years after the group disbanded, *Shout!* examines the history of The Beatles, seeking to provide an accurate account of a story often reduced to half-truths and myths. In his research, Philip Norman tracked down a vast number of major and minor players, including producer George Martin, John Lennon’s aunt and guardian Mimi Smith, Paul McCartney’s younger brother Mike, Brian Epstein’s mother, and the doorman at the Cavern Club. The resulting biography provides a forensic and detailed account of the band's trajectory. This edition features a text thoroughly revised and updated by the author, along with a brand-new introduction. It includes photographs by Terry O’Neill, who captured the band early in their career. The cover and slipcase, designed by Luke Bird, feature an aesthetic inspired by the 1960s.
