Product Description
Review
'Remarkably handsome volume ... As a visual compendium of Elvis and his times the work is outstanding, and students of rock n roll history have a valuable resource of quotes, pictures and facts ... Victor notes that his encyclopedia is 'longer than the Old Testament'; certainly to fundamentalist Elvis nerds it will be as valuable as the Bible -- The Times. 'There's no denying that Victor has done his research ... The 608 meticulously cross-referenced pages deal with every aspect of Elvis's life and work. Happily, there are plenty of entertaining anecdotes in among the exhaustive detail' --Q magazine
'The book is lavishly and lovingly illustrated' -- New York Times Book Review. 'This obsessively detailed and completely entertaining chronicle by Victor of every possible aspect of Elvis Presley s life is mesmerizing and deserves a wide audience' --Publishers Weekly (starred review). 'Improbably rich, admirably thorough, Victor s compendium lends weight to the thought that the Elvis phenomenon reached nearly every corner of the world' --Kirkus Reviews.
'For fans who obsess over the King, it s a certainty: can't help falling in love with The Elvis Encyclopedia' -- Chicago Sun-Times. 'The Elvis Encyclopedia not only makes a mesmerizing coffee table book, it s also a great gift for your hunka hunka burnin love (and others)' -- Vegas Magazine. 'Perhaps the most comprehensive Elvis tome ever' --Los Angeles Confidential
