In 1975, four teenagers from Mount Temple School in Dublin gathered in a crowded kitchen to discuss forming a band. More than thirty years later, Bono, The Edge, Adam Clayton, and Larry Mullen Jr. are still together, bound by intense loyalty, passionate idealism, and a relentless belief in the power of rock and roll to change the world. In an epic journey that has taken the band from the clubs of Dublin to the stadiums of the world, U2 has sold more than 130 million albums, revolutionized live performance, spearheaded political campaigns, and made music that defines the age in which we live.

Told with wit, insight, and astonishing candor by the band members themselves and manager Paul McGuinness--with pictures from their own archives--U2 by U2 allows unprecedented access into the inner life of the greatest rock band of our times.

From the Publisher:
This is the story of U2, in their own words and pictures. The text was created from over 150 hours of exclusive interviews with Bono, Adam Clayton, Edge, Larry Mullen Jr and manager Paul McGuinness, conducted over the course of two years especially for the book by author and rock critic Neil McCormick.
photographs, documents and memorabilia were supplied from personal archives by the members of U2 and Principle Management. The book was art directed by Steve Averill, the man responsible for U2's graphic output from their very first poster in 1977 and designed by his associates at Four5One creative, Gary Kelly.
