Elvis: His Life from A to Z
A comprehensive compendium of information on the King of Rock 'n' Roll, ranging from the most significant facts to the most trivial. The first major section is an alphabetically arranged listing of more than 1800 entries covering people, places, pets, and things having any connection with Elvis Presley, no matter how remotegirlfriends, servants at Graceland, even the names of his dogs and horses, favorite kinds of food, and preferred toothpaste brand. Other lengthy chapters include a highly detailed filmography flush with trivia and a list of some 1000 songs with data on Elvis's live or recorded versions, plus bootlegs. Shorter sections list Elvis's recording sessions; concert, TV, and radio appearances; discographies of his singles, albums, and CD's; and a host of other miscellanea. A mind-boggling collection, entertaining for browsing purposes but with limited reference value since it lacks any systematic cross-indexing. Paul G.
