Books owned by Brian Epstein:All in a Lifetime by Walter Allen (1959) [1960 Readers Union edition]

Synopsis: ‘At the end of his life, humble Billy Ashted, an artisan silversmith from the Midlands, decides to write a memoir in the form of a letter to his sister. His prosperous son thinks that the old boy’s mind is wandering; he can have no knowledge that his father is coming to terms with life. For Billy, this coming of terms means not only a personal reappraisal but also a reliving of a social revolution. For in his lifetime, in England, the working class rose from hopelessness to a time when working class interests arrived at the height of political power.’
