Because Colonel Parker was always there with Elvis, gazing ominously over his shoulder, the book presents behind-the-scenes glimpses of the entertainers career that you will read nowhere else, thanks in part to the authors personal and professional relationship with Elviss first guitarist, Scotty Moore, with whom the author wrote two revealing books.Book specifications:Dimensions: 229 x 152Author: James L.
