  This title offers a warts-and-all biography, covering all aspects of the ABBA members' lives and careers: the period before the group came together, the success story of the 1970s, their marriage and divorces, the ups and downs of their business empire and their careers after the group. The bulk of the book focuses on the ABBA years. As the story of the group and its members develop, the book takes a look at the groups musical development, offering a critique of the groups' songs in terms of European tradition. Similarly the ABBA story is related in the context of Swedish history and culture.
