Many books have been written about Queen, but this is a first “an intimate view from the inside by a founder band member”; its also the first history of any rock group ever to be created in 3-D. Not only has Brian May written the book (no ghost writer here), but the 3-D illustrations were all captured with Brians stereoscopic cameras, mostly by the man himself. From an early age Brian would travel with a stereo (3-D) camera in hand, so on Queen tours and during recordings he was able to capture rare behind-the-scenes moments of one of the worlds greatest rock bands. Decades later these are now being shared for the very first time. Some of the photographs had not even been fully processed until the book was in the making. Initially thought by Brian to be a quick job, this project turned into a labour of love for May and his team which spanned three years. Each time the book seemed to be close to completion, more 3-D photos were found in forgotten hiding places, prompting further memories and filling in the gaps in the narrative. The book eventually became a compelling set of snapshots of Brians life and the life of Queen, over more than 50 years.
