Who Was Elvis Presley? Description
Put on your blue suede shoes and get ready for another addition to the Who Was…? series! The King could not have come from humbler origins: Born in Tupelo, Mississippi, during the Depression, he grew up with the blues music of the rural South, the gospel music of local churches, and the country-western classics. But he forged a sound all his own—and a look that was all his own, too. With curled lip, swiveling hips, and greased pompadour, Elvis changed popular music forever, ushering in the age of rock and roll. Geoff Edgers’s fascinating biography of this icon of American pop culture includes black and- white illustrations on nearly every spread.

This is a must read for Elvis fans. Very funny and respectful, yet truthful in how many of us are so weird in our continued devotion to this amazing icon.
By Janet E. Jorgensen
in remembering his death around this time of the year this is a good book for a younger era to find out who Elvis Presley was and what made him who he was as a artist. this book covers alot of territory and isn't long and it is a cool book for a newbie on Elvis.
