Product Description

From his humble beginnings in Tupelo, Mississippi, Elvis Aaron Presley went on to become one of the most famous figures in pop history, sexily swiveling his hips on The Ed Sullivan Show (to parents' consternation); making his mark in movies such as Jailhouse Rock; and finally performing in glitzy Las Vegas nightclubs. Rediscover the highlights of the King's career in pictures that capture all these and many more precious moments. The earliest photos show Elvis as a child, and portray the beginnings of his career, including his first recording sessions and TV appearances; they also reveal more personal dimensions of his life, including his family and girlfriends. Follow him during his years in the army (photos show him undergoing a medical examination and getting the required crew cut); as he turns into a movie star; and into his final decade. An illuminating introduction and detailed captions put the images in context.

Many errors in captions of photos and names with Elvis.3
I wrote to the publisher after buying this book to make them aware of the many errors with regards to captions associated with photos, such as names of people with Elvis and movie titles. Before you do a book, you should research what you are putting in to make sure it is correct and therefore educating the reader with the "right" information. Sincerely, Robin Rosaaen "All The King's Things"

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN: THE KING!!5
I purchased this book in amazon, and I enjoyed it; it's the king's story in images, from his early days in 50's and his last moments in 70's; this book had pictures of the most important moments in his life: his initial presentations, his first recording sessions, the days at the US army, some shots of many of his films, his later return to the stage and the final days. If you are a Elvis fan, you have to buy it!
