Featuring never before published interviews with Linda and Paul McCartney, Linda McCartney: A Portrait is an insiders look at one of rock music"s most enduring marriages, and an intimate portrait of Linda herself and of her over thirty-year friendship with Danny Fields. When Linda married Paul she instantly found herself the focus of the intense scorn and envy of millions of women around the world - women who hoped and prayed her relationship to their beloved Beatle Paul would not last. But it did last for nearly thirty years. Reviled and dismissed at first, Linda withstood the pressures of fame, fortune, and intense public scrutiny to make her own lasting contribution to the world as an artist, author, animal rights activist, and businesswoman. Her death in 1998 of breast cancer sent shock waves throughout the world, and a collective grief at her passing is an ironic counterpart to the contempt that greeted the news of her marriage to Paul. Included are interviews with members of Wings and stories from friends, family, and stars of the rock world. Linda McCartney: A Portrait is Field"s poignant remembrance and fond farewell to his lifelong friend.
