My husband purchased this book for me for my birthday. I love it! I've been a U2 fan for two (2) decades, but didn't realize how much I didn't know about the group until I perused this book. There are hundreds of photos including family photos and host of photos featuring U2 with other celebrities. The text is written directly from many hours of taped interviews by the four (4) members of U2 and others who are close to their group. It provides the reader with insight into the band member's personal and professional lives and how that has moulded their music and political activism. I recommend this book to all fans of U2.
Was a little musty when it arrived but that wore off quickly. Small type, often on colored backgrounds, makes it difficult for these old eyes to read … but it's worth it. Lots and lots of pictures scattered in with the remarks. If you're a U2 fan, you won't learn much that's new but it's great to hear it in their own words. Only halfway through, but so far it's been a delightful read. Bono does most of the talking (of course :-), but they're all very articulate, and The Edge is funny as, er, heck. Warning: it IS a coffee table book, so it's really heavy. Really.

Interesting stories and more pictures than you can count!!! I got the hard-cover edition and this is a heavy 5 pound book, I felt bad for the mail man.But it was worth the price.
