Imag­ine my delight and sur­prise when my sis­ter pre­sented me with a God­dess Mother’s Day gift (I call myself God­dess Mother instead of “God­mother” to my almost 2 year old Dinky Diva niece). A com­plete vol­ume of every­thing Elvis, all Elvis, all the time.

I may have men­tioned, a time or ten, that I am a devoted Elvis fan. Not the creepy, know every detail, groupie, obsessed kind of fan…but with this ency­clo­pe­dia, I am am equipped to become one, if I so desire.

Just about every detail Elvis’ life has been met­i­clously researched,  detailed and chron­i­cled.  As the author, Adam Vic­tor notes, ” this ency­clo­pe­dia is longer than the Old Tes­ta­ment”; a com­par­i­son to higher pow­ers? I will leave that up to you to decide. I know my vote is in on that count *wink*.

I have already made a spot on my cof­fee table for this hand­some com­pendium, if some­one could just help me by pry­ing it out of my hands.
