About this product

Product Information

Last Train to Memphis, the first part of Guralnick's two-volume life of Elvis Presley, received unprecedented accolades. This concluding volume recounts the second half of Elvis's life in rich and previously unimagined detail, and confirms Guralnick's status as one of the great biographers of our time. Beginning with Presley's army service in Germany in 1958 and ending with his death in Memphis in 1977, Careless Love chronicles the unraveling of the dream that once shone so brightly, homing in on the complex playing-out of Elvis's relationship with his Machiavellian manager, Colonel Tom Parker. It's a breathtaking drama that places the events of a too often mistold tale in a fresh, believable, and understandable context. This is the quintessential American story, encompassing race, class, wealth, sex, music, religion, and personal transformation. Written with grace, sensitivity, and passion, Careless Love is a unique contribution to our understanding of American popular culture and the nature of success, giving us true insight at last into one of the most misunderstood public figures of our times.

    Simply Superb Reading!!!

    Careless Love is the second volume of a two-part biography of the live of Elvis Presley. It is written by Peter Guralnick, probably the foremost biographer of popular music artists in the English-speaking world. His writing is incredibly detailed and thorough, yet remains illuminating and interesting. Required reading for anyone interested in the life of one of the most important figures in popular music history.

  • Great read.

    This really is the book you should read if you want to know everything about Elvis, warts and all. Fascinating and at the same time so sad.

  • Elvis just Elvis

    This is a serious book and as a musician makes great reading - a lot of the book is about the music and its promotion and goes into detail about Elvis private life and his personality
