About
In July 1964, Paul McCartney bought Drake’s Drum, a racehorse, for £1,200 and gave it as a present to his father on July 6, 1964, during the private party that followed the premiere of “A Hard Day’s Night” at the London Pavilion.
On March 26, 1966, Drake’s Drum won the Hylton Place at Liverpool’s famous Aintree Racecourse.
In later years, Paul retired the horse to his farm in Scotland.

"With greatly expanded text, this is the most revealing and frank personal 30-year chronicle of the group ever written. Insider Barry Miles covers the Beatles story from childhood to the break-up of the group."
We owe a lot to Barry Miles for the creation of those pages, but you really have to buy this book to get all the details - a day to day chronology of what happened to the four Beatles during the Beatles years!
