Ticket to Ride

An insider's look at the world's first major rock-and-roll tour...and the beginning of a revolution

Ticket to Ride tells the Beatles’ story like it’s never been told before. Larry Kane was the only American reporter to travel to every stop of the Beatles’ pathbreaking 1964 and 1965 North American tours, giving him more access to the Beatles than any other member of the U.S. media. Kane joined them everywhere—on the airplane, in their hotel suites and limousines, and backstage—making Ticket to Ride the most detailed and intimate look at the four young Liverpudlian innocents as they were transformed into world-renowned musical legends.

Over the years the market has been flooded with far too many second-rate books on aspects of the Beatles’ history, but Larry Kane’s Ticket to Ride stands out as an honest, informative, comprehensive, and entertaining account. (Tony Barrow, the Beatles’ press officer, 1963–1968)

A breezy account of what it was like at the Boys’ side as Beatlemania swept the nation. (Rolling Stone)

Terrific fly-on-the-wall stuff about a unique pop-cultural event. (Booklist)
