This is a co-authored book about the history of Genesis from 1963 through to 1987, the book was likely written and released to capitalise on the success of the 1986 Genesis album Invisible touch. The Invisible touch tour was due to arrive in France in May and June of 1987 respectively. There are some well known (common) photos within the book, but also some rather rare ones, although the rare ones date from the mid seventies through to 1987.

Text from the rear of the book:
Genesis, an unclassifiable, anti-star, unpredictable and perfectionist phenomenon, which has managed, without the support of the media and fashions, to rise to the top of today’s music. A strange jewel of the seventies, Genesis asserts itself as the most spectacular group of the eighties and around its name turned out to be performers as astonishing as Peter Gabriel or Phil Collins. Alain Bayeulle and Laurence Berrouet have brought together and with records, archives, videos, photos, interviews and testimonies to produce a reference book, retracing in detail the whole history of the group and the solo careers of each, from 1963 to 1987.
