Book Reviews of U2 by U2

Book Review: The Best Coffee Table Book You Will Ever Have
Summary: 5 Stars

U2 by U2 is not only a nice hefty book that covers every facet of the Dublin Boys rise to fame...It really captures some amazing photgraphs of the guys and what was going down during every album they put out...

It's been on the top of my coffee table in the living room and everyone who sits down is compelled to pick up this book and just flip thru the pages and just be overwhelmed by its unique combination of colorful lay-outs to the inside stories nobody ever heard before...

I bought the slightly damaged version over Amazon for $17 + $3 shipping...

There is barely a little ruffle on the cover and at that price...if you are a U2 fan...do not hesitate to pick this thing up...!!!

In 1975, four teenagers from Mount Temple School in Dublin gathered in a crowded kitchen to discuss forming a band. The drum kit just about fit into the room, the lead guitarist was playing a homemade guitar, the bassist could barely play at all and nobody wanted to sing. Over thirty years later, Bono, The Edge, Adam Clayton and Larry Mullen Jr. are still together, bound by intense loyalty, passionate idealism and a relentless belief in the power of rock and roll to change the world.


Watch a video introduction to U2 by U2

In a epic journey that has taken them from the clubs of Dublin to the stadiums of the world, U2 have sold over 130 million albums, been number one all over the world, revolutionized live performance, spearheaded political campaigns and made music that defines the age we live in.

From the anarchic days of their Seventies punk origins through their Eighties ascent to superstardom with the epic rock of The Joshua Tree, the dark post-modern ironies of Achtung Baby in the Nineties and their 21st-Century resurgence as rock's biggest and boldest band, this is a tale of faith, love, drama, family, birth, death, survival, conflict, crises, creativity . . . and a lot of laughter.

Told with wit, insight and astonishing candour by the band themselves and manager Paul McGuinness, with pictures from their own archives, U2 by U2 allows unprecedented access into the inner life of the greatest rock band of our times.
