SynopsisA devoted son. A generous friend. A model Army recruit. A gifted entertainer. A beloved hero to millions. This is the Elvis Presly the world knew -- and cherished. Brooding. Violent. Obsessed with death. Strung out. Sexually driven. This is the other side of Elvis -- according to the three men who lived with him through it all -- a man who: * Chamed a beautiful young fan into joining him on a drug binge for two that nearly killed her * Took a group of friends on a 3 A.M. visit to a mortuary to look at corpses and talk about embalming * Hurled a pool cue at a party guest who interrupts his game, injuring her breast * Talked with his bodyguard about a "hit" on the man he felt stole his wife Steve Dunleavy has woven together the experiences of three Presley bodyguards who were there partying with him, womanizing with him, worrying with him -- tasting the pleasure and the pains of life with the most fabulous star in showbiz history!

  • A bit fragile due to the age, pages are crispy and yellow.

    I have just started reading this book. Reading it is a bit difficult due to small print but I do think it may be difficult because of the story line. At this point I have not made a decision regarding recommendations.

  • The ugly truth.

    Notorious book written by Elvis’ disgruntled former employees and released just before his death in 1977. All true stories as it turned out.

    Great book to read. There were a couple of conflicting variations of a few stories that I came across, who knows which one is the real version?
