Elvis: What Happened? by Steve Dunleavy
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
This is my second or third time reading this book and I still enjoy this revealing American tragedy told from the inside by three of E's bodyguards that knew him and worked him for many years. In some cases, the relationship goes back to high school. Those early days are alluded to in the book, but this work was published after Elvis let Sonny & Red West go and in the early 70s when he was in decline yet still alive. More of the book's content is losing Priscilla to Mike Stone and the drug excesses largely during a time when Elvis was more movie star than performer.
