Query: In a word. Terrible

The book is based on little fact and a lot hearsay and gossip. If the author had been able to corroberate any of the stories i.e. the attempted murder of McCartney by one of his guitarists makes for interesting reading but it is no more interesting than a book on the grassy knoll shooter of Jim Marrs fame.
