Everyone knows who the Spice Girls are. The group became the most famous pop trademark of the 1990s, and for a while they were the biggest-selling act on planet pop.

About the Author
David Sinclair has been an admirer of the Spice Girls from the beginning and a close observer of the Spice Girls phenomenon throughout. In the course of reporting on their adventures for The Times in London, he has interviewed them both collectively and individually over the years and seen them strutting their stuff in such far flung locations as Spain, South Africa, Scotland and Ireland. His insights, experience and authority as a writer combined with the exotic appeal of the Spice Girls will make this a text that anyone with an interest in pop and popular culture in the 21st Century will want to read.
