Industry Reviews
"A new book from Abrams, Rolling Stone 50 Years of Covers: A History of the Most Influential Magazine in Pop Culture by Wenner, pays testament to this incredible legacy, featuring every single cover from the magazine's 50-year history." -- AnOther Man
"Bette Midler, Madonna, Bob Dylan: once you make it on to the cover of Rolling Stone magazine, you know you're an icon. For the past 50 years, the magazine's front page has been a litmus test of cool, defining the 'what's hot' and 'what's not' of popular culture. Now, co-founder of the publication Jann Wenner has crammed together all of the covers in this fabulous book. It's a must-have for anyone who considers themselves a rocker." -- Daily Mail
