# The Little Book of John Lennon: In His Own Words - Hardcover

by **Malcolm Croft** (Author)

**Born 9 October 1940 in Liverpool, John Lennon was a walking, talking, quote machine. Every time he opened his mouth, genius fell out. To celebrate this simple, glorious truth, _The Little Book of John Lennon_ is here to remind you what a legend sounds like.**

From his days down in the dumps as a Liverpudlian scamp to his tenure in the world's greatest beat combo to his post-Beatles bed-ins and living for peace, love and understanding, _The Little Book of John Lennon_ speaks the truth as Lennon himself lived it. Imagine a world with no John Lennon - it's easy if you try. But, why in the world would you want to? This is John Lennon at his best, and in his own words
