I just read Dabe Marsh's book on the Beatles (US) Second Album.  It was 
pretty good, actually, a small volume given it's such a narrow subject.  I 
don't agree with everything Marsh postulates, I never did, but he makes some 
good points.

And he really tears into Dave Dexter.  I think most folks have kind of 
resigned themselves by now to the futzing Dex did and turning down the first 
four singles by them (then taking credit for 'discovering them') but there 
is more to HIS story than I would have thought, and that bit was interesting 
as well.

If you see the book at your library it's certainly worth picking up.
