Gift Idea: The Illustrated Life of John Lennon



John Lennon was sadly taken from us on this day in 1980 but his music still lives on. Why not celebrate his life with a gift to yourself or a loved one this Christmas with this fantastic book; Lennon Legend: An Illustrated Life of John Lennon by James Henke.




In this book, presented in a slipcase, is everything the John Lennon fan could want. It was created with the co-operation of Yoko Ono, who opened up John's archives for this book. The book offers details about every era of John's life, from his early days at Liverpool college of art to the height of Beatlemania to Imagine.

There are several interviews with John Lennon and it will offer insights into the mind of this genius for longtime fans and those who are just getting into the man. A report card from 1956 has Lennon's Quarrybank Headmaster saying John had 'too many of the wrong ambitions and his energy is misplaced'.  Do you agree with the Headmaster? Maybe at the time, that was a correct assessment of Lennon but by 1962, it was clear what he was destined for; Worldwide fame and fortune as a member of the greatest band of all time.

 Get this book for the John Lennon fan in your life this Christmas!
