		john lennon: in his life by John Blaney and Valeria Manferto De Fabianis with Yoko Ono Lennon's foreword White Star, 2010 A hardcover publication with 272 pages, in English. The publisher: "This photographic biography of the Fab Four’s enigmatic leader is dedicated to his artistic career, which began in Liverpool in 1962, and also to his life, which was marked by restless exploration—into art and music, consciousness and spirituality, politics and protest, love and peace. Featuring family photos and reproductions of documents that bear witness to momentous events and the origins of his "Imaginative" songs, this compilation, like no other, sheds light on his relationships with Paul, George, and Ringo; his attitudes toward mind-expanding drugs, social revolution, and the Vietnam War; the cataclysmic breakup of the Beatles; and the tenderness of his love for Yoko Ono and their only child together Sean." john lennon: in their own write - a loving tribute from his friends and fans by Judith Furedi (editor) Lucky & Me Productions, 2009 Paperback, 172 pages. Steve Marinucci, Beatles Examiner: "It's likely 'john lennon: in their own write/a loving tribute from his friends and fans" might have a fan in the former Beatle himself. Rather than statically recount Lennon's life, the just published book by author Judith Furedi lets people, including some of those close to him, tell the story through anecdotes and quotes. The book includes contributions from Yoko Ono, Sean Lennon, Julian Lennon and Shea Stadium promoter Sid Bernstein, who wrote the introduction." www.dearjohnlennon.com john lennon: the life By Philip Norman Ecco, 2008 Hardcover, 864 pages, black and white photographs. The publisher: "This masterly biography takes a fresh and penetrating look at every aspect of Lennon's much-chronicled life, including the songs that have turned him, posthumously, into a near-secular saint. In three years of research, Norman has turned up an extraordinary amount of new information about even the best-known episodes of Lennon folklore—his upbringing by his strict Aunt Mimi; his allegedly wasted school and student days; the evolution of his peerless creative partnership with Paul McCartney; his Beatle-busting love affair with a Japanese performance artist; his forays into painting and literature; his experiments with Transcendental Meditation, primal scream therapy, and drugs. The book's numerous key informants and interviewees include Sir Paul McCartney, Sir George Martin, Sean Lennon—whose moving reminiscence reveals his father as never before—and Yoko Ono, who speaks with sometimes shocking candor about the inner workings of her marriage to John. Honest and unflinching, as John himself would wish, Norman gives us the whole man in all his endless contradictions—tough and cynical, hilariously funny but also naive, vulnerable and insecure—and reveals how the mother who gave him away as a toddler haunted his mind and his music for the rest of his days." A great book really worth a read for any Lennon fan. john & yoko: a new york love story By Allan Tannenbaum Insight Editions, 2007 Hardcover, 160 pages. Foreword by Yoko Ono. Publisher: In November 1980 photographer Allan Tannenbaum had unique and total access to John and Yoko, who were emerging from five years of seclusion and avoiding the media. As one of the few photographers with whom John and Yoko were close, Tannenbaum was privileged to be able to capture many intimate moments between the two. The resulting photographs, many of which have never before been available to the public, portray a couple deeply in love--playful, spiritual, and remarkably at home in front of the camera while expressing their feelings to each other. John cherished these images of Yoko and was moved by their beauty and grace." give peace a chance: john lennon and yoko ono Bakhåll, 2007 Bakhåll: "This book, edited under Yoko’s supervision in 2007, is an anthology of photos, documents and quotations culled from the couple’s many inspiring peace campaigns, spanning from the late 1960s to Yoko’s peace work in Lennon’s memory in recent years. 176 pages, 146 X 146 mm, hard cover, sewn, printed on high quality paper, illustrated with drawings by John and photos.

Over the course of the next nine years, right up until Lennon was killed, Gruen would photograph him extensively. This book assembles the most revealing of those images, taken during Lennon's years in New York, together with Gruen's reflections on the circumstances surrounding the photos, including John's relationship with Yoko, how he dealt with fame, and his experiences with fatherhood. The result is a remarkable behind-the-scenes look at John Lennon as a performer, a legend, and a person." A beautiful book. john By Cynthia Lennon Hodder & Stoughton Ltd, 2005 352 pages. Publisher: "As with all iconic figures, the mythology is often better known than the real story. Her affection undimmed, Cynthia is candid about the cruel, as well as the loving, side of John. She tells of the end of their marriage and the beginning of his relationship with Yoko Ono in more detail than ever before, and reveals the many difficulties estrangement from John - and then his death - brought for herself and their son Julian." john lennon: listen to this book By John Blaney, 2005 350 pages.
