SIGNED First Edition was Published in 2005, this Reissue from 2015 is an intimate album of photographs, most never published before, of John in his last decade. A musical genius, an innovator, a peace activist - John Lennon was all these and more, and he continues to be revered years after his shocking murder in New York elevated him to mythic stature.

This book assembles the most revealing of those images, taken during John's treasured 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.
