Elvis and the stars...
For those who enjoy every detail about Elvis Presley, this book is essential. It's the first A-Z book to sum up all the essential details of nearly every famous star or personality Elvis met in his entire life, in a compact form, with a picture of Elvis and the person written about. A book terribly missed by every Elvis fan. Elvis Unlimited proudly presents Elvis and other Celebrities - Candid Favourite Shots
Elvis is said to be the most photographed man in history.

If not the most photographed, he is certainly one of the most photographed anyway. He was photographed with stars and personalities like Richard M. Nixon, Frank Sinatra, Muhammed Ali, Glen Campbell, Bill Haley, Dean Martin and Sophia Loren among many, many others. But sometimes you have probably caught a glimpse of Elvis with someone else on a picture, you never knew who were? "Who is Elvis standing with on that picture?," you have probably asked yourself several times.

If so, you now get the chance to learn a lot more about these other - not so famous - personalities as well. Names like Tempest Storm, Imogene Coco, Dorothy Harmony, Gary Merrill and Hedda Hopper. That problem has now been solved, thanks to Elvis and Other Celebrities - Candid Favourite Shots. You can read a lot more about them and many others, their meeting and connection with Elvis, in this detailed book

The book is not supposed to be a photo book, with many rare and unpublished photos, even though some are really rare and even unpublished
Elvis and other Celebrities - Candid Favourite Shots offers this crucial information and pictures for the first time in one single book. It's a powerful and fascinating book that will delight and captivate every Elvis fan around the Globe!

Hier hatte er am 14. 9. 1959 die 14jährige Priscilla Beaulieu kennengelernt, die er am 1. 5. 1967 heiratete (Scheidung 1973). Auf der Single 'Wooden Heart' von 1960 streute Elvis Presley deutsche Text-Passagen ( - 'Muß i denn, muß i denn zum Städtele hinaus' usw.) ein.
