"Handsome". -- The New York Times Book Review

Elvis Presley's influence on American culture cannot be overstated. His pulse-racing rock, tear-jerking ballads, and hipgyrating antics touched all of us, drawing legions of screaming fans and cementing the direction of rock-and-roll culture. In Elvis, music critic Dave Marsh pieces through all aspects of the King's life. With compassion and penetrating insight, Marsh examines Elvis's trajectory from poor country boy to superstar, from faded has-been to his triumphant comeback, and to his ultimate decline and tragic end. This richly-illustrated tribute brings the best of the King to every Elvis fan.
