My Long & Winding Road - Hardcover Autobiography
Biography
Angie McCartney was born in Liverpool in 1929 and grew up during World War II, spending childhood nights in the Anderson Air Raid Shelter in the back garden of their Norris Green home. She would take a penny tramcar ride along the Liverpool Docks and dream of going to America, which she finally did in her 60's, via London, Sydney, Germany, Austria, Russia, Siberia, and many other points. Her book: Angie McCartney, My Long and Winding Road, (the first 82.7 years), includes the 12 years she was married to Jim McCartney, Father of Sir Paul, leading to many interesting adventures with The Beatles and other luminaries. It was launched with a 2 night extravaganza in her home town of Liverpool, at the famed Philharmonic Hall featuring Beatle bands from as far away as Tokyo and Eastern Europe. Angie is a weekly contributor to the Pete Price late night talk show on CityTalk.FM in Liverpool at 1am local time each Wednesday. Angie is currently touring with the retrospective evening stage show "The Magical History Tour" produced by son-in-law Martin Nethercutt, and also featuring her daughter, Ruth, their anecdotes, stories behind the songs and the best darn Beatle Tribute band you ever will see.

"I literally couldn’t put this book down and read it straight through. Angie McCartney has led a life most of us can only dream of. If you’re a Beatles fan, this is a must-read. If you’re attracted to stories about people with strength of purpose, this deserves a key spot on your reading list.

"As the only Beatle parent still alive, 90-year-old Angie McCartney has a perspective on life, love and the Beatles that cannot be replicated. I especially enjoyed the stories of her youth, growing up in war-torn Britain and her resilience in the face of adversity. And of course, there's her great Beatles stories. I highly recommend this book."
"Angie McCartney has led a truly amazing life and has packed a lot of living in her 90 years. Your Mother Should Know is a book is full of fascinating stories about growing up in Britain, her life with husband Jim McCartney (Paul's dad) and daughter Ruth, plenty of stories about the Beatles years and what she is currently up to with her celebrity pals, her successful wine and tea businesses and her life back in the USA. Her great sense of humor is reflected in these pages. There are also links to family and other videos that are fun to see. Wonderful book Mrs. McCartney!"
