It is fully illustrated with both colour and black-and-white photographs. It is a must-have purchase for Beatles fans across the globe. In "Sound Bites: The Wit of The Beatles," the down-to-earth humour of these four happy-go-lucky, cheeky working-class lads from Liverpool comes under the spotlight.
