John Lennon: The Life Legend ~ A Special Tribute by The Sunday Times John Lennon, former Beatle, singer and composer, was shot dead in New York on December 9, 1980. He was 40. In this special Sunday Times tribute, writers who have had a particular interest in the group examine the complexities and controversies of his life and the legend which grew along with him. Through a major series of photographs, many of them exclusive, we chronicle the development of the Beatles, John Lennon's later years in America with Yoko Ono and the days leading up to his death. In the center section is a portfolio of snapshots from his early life and five of his most celebrated lyrics in his own handwriting; much of this material had never been previously published until this special tribute. This 64 page publication reminds us of why his songs and his public statements held such a significance for an entire generation. Articles in this tribute include: the Beatles in pictures; John Lennon 1940-1970, by Hunter Davies; A fan's lament, by Susan Hill; Manuscripts and mementos; John Lennon 1970-1980, by Michael Watts; In his own words, a compilation by Richard Williams; Critical discography, by Paul Cambaccini; and Selective chronology, by Mark Lewisohn.
