Synopsis
Forewords by Brian May & Roger Taylor.
From sell-out tours, chart-topping records and a phenomenal success of almost 50 years, Queen are one of the biggest bands to ever grace this Earth . . .
All over the world, hundreds of millions of albums, singles and videos have been sold as well as the biggest ever paying crowds, the longest number of weeks in the charts and headlining the biggest festivals ever!
The book celebrates the band, its members, recordings and concerts through images and the written word, as well as through pieces of memorabilia from the private collections of Queen's members. As well as beautiful photography, some amazing memorabilia is reproduced on the page: backstage passes, handwritten lyrics, unpublished album art, ultra-rare posters, original tour itineraries, postcards, limited-edition records, invites to the now-legendary tour parties, and more!
Explore this official publication, approved by the band themselves, as we tell the story of a hugely talents and popular group of iconic musicians.

The Author
Harry Doherty has worked as a music journalist since the early 1970s, when he joined Melody Maker as a staff writer. In the course of his time with Melody Maker, he covered a range of top bands, and wrote major features on many artists including Queen, with whom he developed a close relationship. Subsequently, Doherty went on to be founding editor of Metal Hammer in the UK and then became editor-in-chief on the world's first hard rock video-magazine, Hard 'n' Heavy. Harry passed away in 2014 but his spirit rocks on.
