"When Paul McCartney told the world in 1970 that he had no plans to work with the
Beatles again, it was widely viewed as a cultural tragedy by the media and public
alike. But one of the most fascinating phases of the Beatles' story was just about
to begin. Now, for the first time, You Never Give Me Your Money tells the dramatic
story of the Fab Four post 1969. It charts the almost Shakespearean rivalry of the
Lennon and McCartney families, the conflict in George Harrison's life between
spirituality and fame, and Richard Starkey's efforts to escape the alcoholism that
threatened to kill him. It also chronicles the transformation of their multi-media
company, Apple Corps, from a bastion of 1960s counter-culture into a corporate
behemoth. The best of rock'n'roll writers, Peter Doggett gives us a compelling
human drama, spanning from tragedy to triumphant reunion, and court battles to chart
success, tracing the untold story of a group and a legacy that will never be forgotten."
