"For me, the essence of this book is the lyrics and I believe they
stand the test of time because they are written about man's eternal
quest, dilemmas, joys and sorrows. George's lyrics were, in my
opinion, the most spiritually conscious of our time" - Olivia
Harrison Cherished by fans and collectors, I Me Mine is the closest
we will come to George Harrison's autobiography. This new volume
has been significantly updated since the 1980 original. For the
first time I Me Mine - The Extended Edition covers the full span of
George Harrison's life and work, exploring his upbringing in
Liverpool, the growth of Beatlemania, his love of India, gardening
and racing cars. I Me Mine also presents 141 of George Harrison's
songs. With lyrics handwritten and reproduced in facsimile,
accompanied by his uniquely intimate and humorous commentary, this
new edition of I Me Mine now includes more than 50 additional
lyrics written for the Beatles and Harrison's solo albums - from
All Things Must Pass to Brainwashed. With written contributions
from Olivia Harrison and Derek Taylor, original cover art by
Shepard Fairey, and a wealth of previously unpublished material, I
Me Mine -The Extended Edition is a treasured portrait of George
Harrison and his music. "Writing a song is like going to
confession... writing songs to try and find out who you are."
-George Harrison "A book which tells the story of growing up, not
necessarily the hard way but certainly not the easy way, for no
matter how greatly privilege and wealth may have seemed to grace
the Beatles' evolution, 'easy' is not the word for what happened to
them on their way to what has come to be known as The Top." - Derek
Taylor

A classic reprint from 1918 giving the history of the Bolsheviks
& I.W.W. Today, locked behind several sets of steel bars in one
of those dungeons Capitalism has prepared for workers who challenge
its rule, the writer watches the play of social forces in the
greatest of crises ever yet facing this stage of civilization.
Someone has said that the people of any given period do not grasp
the significance of events transpiring under their eyes; that
events are only historically understood as they move into the past
and afford perspective. It may be that my interested isolation, my
severance from active participation in the great; drama, affords
such perspective. But, be that as it may, the writer feels
constrained to point out what, in his opinion, is the lesson to the
workers contained in recent and current history what means that
inspiring light that penetrates even the prison windows and floods
my cell with the glory of the Red Dawn?
