The Elvis Encyclopedia contains everything there is to know about Elvis's personal and professional life, presented in riveting detail. Painstakingly compiled by his own stepbrother, David Stanley, who lived with Elvis at Graceland for 17 years and traveled with him until Elvis's death in 1977, this ultimate resource book contains never-published photos and a chronology of Elvis's life. 250 photos, many in color.

Review:

Almost as good as a round-trip ticket to Graceland! Contains a day-by-day chronology of the King's life; more than 100 first-person anecdotes from his step-brother and oldest friend; more than 300 personal photographs, letters, and private documents; information on every Elvis movie and recording; bios of the King's 50 closest friends; and an experts-only Elvis quiz. The author, David Stanley, is actually Elvis' brother in a "I'm my own grandpa" kind of way: his mother married Elvis' dad.
