Synopsis
A chronological list of events in The Who's career. The introduction describes it like this: "Virtually every word in this book was spoken or written by someone who was in the presence of The Who as it happened."
Eyewitness: The Who is a detailed and strictly chronological account of the band's astonishing career, told by the band and other eyewitnesses, including business associates, friends, family and fans.
Concentrating on their most exciting and fertile period, from forming through to the death of Keith Moon, it gives as far is is possible a day-by-day account of their band's life - the concerts, the tours, the recording sessions, the filming of Tommy and of course the legendary partying.
Separating the facts from the myths is gives a the true story of the drugs, the women and the rows.
The book also gives an overview of what happened after Moon's death and where the Who are today. Their incredible story has never before been told in such detail, entirely in first-hand, straight from the horse's mouth accounts.

External Reviews
"The interviews with Daltrey and Entwistle are particularly interesting, as so often the history of The Who is told with an overwhelming focus on Townshend.
The book is easy to navigate, as it is divided by month and year, and contains an index as well as a bibliography of other notable books. I'd recommend this book as an entertaining history of the band." - Goodreads Review.
