Elvis lives! - in the most comprehensive and remarkable chronicle of his life ever published. The Ultimate Elvis features a never-before-compiled day-by-day calendar of Elvis Presley's life, from birth to death and beyond.

Fan alert! If you thought you knew everything there was to know about the King of rock and roll, think again. The Ultimate Elvis is filled with newly discovered, historically accurate facts and events that even the most die-hard Elvis fan will be shocked and pleased to learn. More than sixteen years after his death, Elvis's charisma, innovative career, and vast achievements continue to amaze and inspire artists in music and entertainment, and Elvis's life still has an impact on society at large.

His memory evokes unswerving devotion from legions of fans and admirers worldwide. Much more than a biography, The Utlimate Elvis features an extraordinary calendar that allows the reader to share the truimphs, tragedies, and everyday life of the world's most famous rock 'n' roll legend.

.

Here is Elvis as you've never seen him before. Taken from a humble environment of poverty and naivete and thrust into a realm of exuberant public adoration, instant fame, and vast fortune, a young, white rockabilly singer with a grooving black sound became a symbol of sexual liberation, social action, and reform, and he instantly became the most sought-after male of our century.

While the public viewed him as a daring emancipator who encouraged freedom, Elvis claimed he was "just a singer" who loved his mother, God, and country. When he was off stage and away from the adoring public, a lonely Elvis Presley tried to deal with inner personal torments, and each took its toll.

  1. This book's posthumous chronology illustrates how daily events continue to enhance the Elvis mystique and proves that the popularity of the King of rock 'n' roll is growing by leaps and bounds!.

Also included in The Ultimate Elvis are lists galore, from the men and women in Elvis's life, quotes about Elvis and from him, his phone numbers, home addresses, pets nicknames and codenames, personal statistics, awards, a complete discography with Billboard ratings, films and videos, people who worked for Elvis, memorabilia and collectibles, a definitive bibliography, and much more. There are illustrations throughout, including over sixty black-and-white photos of the king, some never before seen.

There will never be another Elvis Presley, and there will never be another book as authoritative, original, and complete as The Ultimate Elvis.
