Product Description

Review

"Imagine an entire season of 'Jeopardy' devoted to the Beatles and you've got [this book]." --Variety

"Page after page of fun and frustration...digs into the deepest depth of Beatledom to come up with hundreds of Q's and A's that are sure to stump even the most diehard Beatles trivia nuts...One of the most enjoyable Beatles-related books to find its way into print in some time." --Goldmine

"[A] Beatles buff's delight." --Dallas Morning News

Book Description

When Beatles fans get together, these are kind of questions they hurl at each other: crazy, clever, and arcane; gleaned from decades' worth of listening and reading between the lines. The Ultimate Beatles Quiz Book is the most elaborate and entertaining collection of these questions, trivial and otherwise, that has ever been compiled by a rabid Beatlemaniac. Carefully selected and arranged to appeal to eager beginners, car-radio-sing-alongers, and even the most jaded diehards (and we mean it!), it's also an unstoppably readable, one-of-a-kind mine of facts, photos, and Fab Four lore.

Born in Vancouver, Washington, in 1960, Michael J. Hockinson has been afflicted with second-generation Beatlemania since October 1972, when "Yellow Submarine" had its network TV premiere (on CBS, for all you trivia buffs who read author bios for priceless tidbits). A free-lance writer and correspondent for Beatlefan magazine, he still lives in Vancouver with his wife.

This excellent, power packed book contains information that even seasoned Beatles fans find fresh! Sharply written, the intelligent format and questions are sure to delight all readers. Veteran fans are sure to love it and lay persons will find this book to be a useful source of information when discussing Beatle related matters with fans.

This book is just plain fun. It is an excellent way to test and reinforce one's knowledge of Beatle matters and it is also a good way to impress other fans. I love this book.

A round of applause and a hearty "yeah, yeah, yeah!" from me!

5.0 out of 5 stars Far More Than A Quiz Book!!!, Nov 24 2000

Dan Swan (Lincoln City, Oregon United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Ultimate Beatles Quiz Book II (Paperback)

This book has so much more information about "The Beatles" than any others I've read... including The "NEW" Anthology!!! The author is obviously an "EXPERT" in all that is "Beatles". I pride myself as quite the Beatles aficionado, but this book is so far beyond anything I can relate to, it's not even funny. The amount of work that went into the creation of this book is simply mind boggling. Every Beatles fan on the planet should own this book. If you "think" you "know" The Beatles; this book will challange you beyond your wildest dreams. By far the "Best" resource ever written on "The Fab Four". Thank You Mr. Hockinson; for a job well done. The "Ultimate" to say the least.

5.0 out of 5 stars The only trivia book you'll ever need
This book is really a history of the Beatles cunningly disguised as a trivia book. The author has an extensive and exhaustive knowledge of his subject, as the reader soon becomes... Read more
