The Last Days Of John Lennon - The Assassination That Changed A Generation.
“The Last Days of John Lennon“is an incredibly thorough book. It’s references are over around 100 pages – – incredible.
It begins with a thorough summary of John’s role with the Beatles. It goes next to his solo career. Finally ending with a tragic day in 1980.
At first I thought this is supposed to be a book about John’s last case, why are we talking about him starting with the Beatles and descriptions of their time in Hamburg. After some thought I realize that not everybody has the background of the Beatles like I you because I grew up with the Beatles as my idols and they remain so today.
Given the premise, then the introduction airy chapters do make a lot of sense. I just wish they were a tiny bit shorter. On the other hand, the details of the John Chapman planning and execution of John were spectacular.
Reading about anyone’s death is painful. Reading about someone who was killed in public by an assassin is is incredibly hurtful. But reading about one’s idol and someways takes my breath away.
This is really a terrific book and I have bounce back-and-forth about what reading should I give it because of the introductory chapters about Job in the Beatles. But given that some people really do not know John’s history, I will except that is an editorial decision.
This is a five star book all the way. Unless you allow me to give 6 then I would give six stars.
For selling younger people I think this is a terrific book and I highly recommend it because it puts the entire situation in perspective.
