DESCRIPTION

The Rise of Elvis Presley - 'The richest portrait of Presley we have ever had' Sunday Telegraph
Newly re-issued under the White Rabbit imprint comes the first of three volumes that make up the definitive Elvis Presley biography

The first volume of Peter Guralnick's critically acclaimed Elvis Presley biographies

'Elvis steps from the pages. You can feel him breathe' BOB DYLAN

'Wonderful' RODDY DOYLE

Last Train to Memphis is arguably the first serious biography that refuses to dwell on the myth of Elvis. Aiming instead to portray in vivid, dramatic terms the life and career of this outstanding artistic and cultural phenomenon, it draws together a plethora of documentary and interview material to create a superbly coherent and plausible narrative.

This is the first of three volumes from music critic and author, Peter Guralnick, and covers Presley's stratospheric rise to stardom up to his departure for Germany in 1958. Last Train to Memphis is undoubtedly the benchmark by which other biographies of Elvis are judged.

'Soars above all other accounts of Elvis' GUARDIAN

'A triumph of biographical art. profound and moving' NEW YORK TIMES
