A propos du livre

Revue de presse :

'Packed with newspaper reports, interviews and historical references, Hopkins provides a sturdy, thoroughly researched context for the rock'n'roll superstar phenomenon.' - London Metro

'The Elvis bookshelf is crowded now, but don't let that put you off. This thoroughly revised and updated version of Hopkins' two classic books deserves a shelf of its own.' - Jann Wenner, founder and editor of Rolling Stone

'The book that Jim Morrison wanted to read. Jerry Hopkins retells the Elvis tale with both authority and compassion.' -- Mojo

'The early chapters, recounting Presley's transformation from bashful youth to supreme performer are almost as exciting as listening to the music.' - Evening Standard

'With a rare combination of seat-of-the-pants reporting and thoughtful portraiture, Hopkins creates a richly nuanced picture of a world in flux.' -- - Peter Guralnick, author of Last Train to Memphis
