Ken McNab reconstructs, for the first time, the seismic events of 1969, when The Beatles reached new highs of creativity and new lows of the internal strife that would destroy them. Between the pressure of being filmed during rehearsals and writing sessions for the documentary Get Back, the company, Apple Corps, facing bankruptcy, John Lennon's heroin use, and musical disagreements, the world's biggest group was arguing more than ever before and their formerly close friendship began to disintegrate. In the midst of this rancor, however, emerged the disharmony of Let It Be and the ragged genius of Abbey Road, their incredible farewell love letter to the world.

This detailed month-by-month account of the breakup features the perspectives of all four Beatles and their roles in the final year and is based on new interviews conducted by the author. McNab has turned rock 'n' roll detective, talking to those closest to the band to bring a modern perspective to the end of The Beatles at the time when they stepped off the page of history and into legend.

A must-add to Beatles fans' collections, And in the End is full of fascinating information available for the first time.
