Linda McCartney

More about the book

Linda McCartney, one of the most fascinating women in the world, died of breast cancer in April of 1998. Now, in a book by one of her closest friends of over 30 years, the whole Linda McCartney is brought into view. The portrait is far more astonishing than any ever presented to the public.In 1969, Linda Eastman married the world's most eligible bachelor, Paul McCartney of the Beatles. It lasted nearly thirty years. How did they do it? What was the nature of their commitment, and what made it so strong? Was it indeed as idyllic as the press has defined it. In their own words, never before published, Linda and Paul reveal to Danny Fields how a romance given a poor chance of survival, flourished until Linda's death.
