When U2 took the stage for their three-year Zoo TV world tour in 1991, Bill Flanagan was there--in the bus, on the plane, in the recording studio and well after hours with the biggest rock band in the world. A tour that began to support the hugely successful Achtung Baby record and ended with a second, even more successful record, Zooropa , took U2 to the far reaches of the world, playing to over a hundred sold-out arenas in over forty cities. U2 At The End Of The World takes you on the world tour and drops you off at the cultural intersection where rock stars meet politicians; where writers, directors, and models all wind up backstage with U2. You're there when the band meets Bill Clinton in a Chicago hotel room; when Salman Rushdie comes out of hiding to join the band onstage at Wembley Arena in London; when Frank Sinatra and Bono record their famous duet, "I've Got You Under My Skin." And finally, when the band performs their last Zoo TV concert in Tokyo in 1993 and nearly collapses from physical and mental exhaustion, you are there with them waiting for the end of the world. Augmented with sleek photos by renowned photographer Anton Corbijn, U2 At The End Of The World is the most definitive book on the band to date. Review: Excelente!!!! - Excelente!!!! Review: Studying U2 for my Survey of Rock and Roll class!! - I have always loved their music but up until a few days ago didn't own a single CD of theirs. Now I own all of them except one I believe. I got interested in U2 because of all the humanitarian work that Bono and the others have done throughout their career especially the work with D.A.T.A. I bought this book to learn more about the band and Bono because I have to give an oral report in class on some one or some band in the history of Rock and Roll. We have to talk about their lyrics, staging, political and religious outlook, who influenced them musically, and more and I thought what better way than to read books and listen to everything I can get my hands on and also watch a DVD of some of their concerts. This book is wonderful. I have barelly put it down since I got it Saturday. I find myself finding out a lot of information not only on the band and its members but also on other musicians that have influenced them like The Beatles and Bob Dylan and others. There have been so many times I have laughed out loud reading it as well. Bill Flanagan paints a wonderful and life like image of the stories he is sharing that makes it easy for the reader to visualize. I recommened it to anyone especially in a Rock-n-Roll class or anyone wanting to now more about the history of the band. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #592,053 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #1,328 in Rock Band Biographies #1,800 in Rock Music (Books) #3,827 in Actor & Entertainer Biographies | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 145 Reviews | ## Images ![U2: At the End of the World - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71LOFDYZFZL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excelente!!!! *by G***A on January 12, 2026* Excelente!!!! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Studying U2 for my Survey of Rock and Roll class!! *by T***O on June 14, 2005* I have always loved their music but up until a few days ago didn't own a single CD of theirs.

This book made me want to drop out of graduate school and become a U2 roadie. Seriously. Fresh from the "Elevation" Tour, I dove into this book to find out more about the fab four from Dublin. What a treat! This book was absolutely wonderful! Flanagan had un-restricted access to the band during the recording of "Achtung, Baby!" and the entire Zoo TV tour and his closeness with the band shows. While other U2 books focus primarily on the childhoods of the members or early years of the band (see Unforgettable Fire) or are barely more than a collection of sound-bytes from other interviews(see The Road to Pop) this book captures U2 in the middle of their Zoo-glory! After reading this book, I found myself listening to my old U2 CD's (and going out and buying CD's that I didn't already have!) with a whole new appreciation for the music. Now I listen for the bass contribution, the unique guitar parts, etc.. Knowing the stories behind the songs brings the music to a whole new level. (For those readers/listeners who don't already love "Achtung, Baby!", this book will have you listening to it on a daily basis!) Flanagan has a remarkable,candid, easy-going writing style that makes this book impossible to put down. While it is a long book, I didn't want it to end! If the author is reading this, PLEASE, for the sake of U2 fans everywhere, write a follow-up! Other U2 books pale by comparison. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.gr/products/62241526-u2-at-the-end-of-the-world](https://www.desertcart.gr/products/62241526-u2-at-the-end-of-the-world) --- *Product available on Desertcart Greece* *Store origin: GR* *Last updated: 2026-08-07*
