(Includes army years.) Long-awaited follow-up to Last Train to Memphis and well worth the wait. Same attention to detail, excellently researched, including new information from many interviews. The real story, without hyperbole, sensation or fantasy -- just honesty, sadness and tragedy - so who needs Shakespeare? ;-)

Stearn's account is heavily influenced by Geller. Too much hearsay narrative for my liking, but second part of book improves. Title not fully justified, but helps shed light on a deeper Elvis than most people are aware ever existed. Unfortunately marred by basic errors.

Sequel to Hopkins' "Elvis," covering December 1970 to August 1977. Largely accurate and honest.
