Produktbeschreibung
A very different view of the world of Elvis Presley is presented in these comic fictional stories. His manager, Colonel Parker, his family and the Memphis Mafia all feature in episodes such as the siege of Graceland when the military police try to arrest Elvis. Fans of the King of Rock and Roll will learn of Liberace's hair-raising encounter with Elvis's pet chimpanzee, screen legend Greta Garbo coming out of retirement to make a film musical, and the invitation from HM The Queen to Elvis to attend the Royal Highland Games. Some stories are based on real events, such as the Million Dollar Quartet and being drafted into the army, but here they are given a comic twist. They are written by a lifelong fan who asks: Who'd have thought Elvis and life at Graceland could be so funny.

Autorenporträt
Robert Wells became an Elvis fan more than 60 years ago and his knowledge and deep affection shines through in this new collection of fictional, funny stories about the King of Rock and Roll. His first book was 'Elvis: The Siege of Graceland and Other Stories'. He has made a pilgrimage to Graceland, Tupelo and the Sun recording studio, as well as spending a night in the Burning Love suite at Heartbreak Hotel. A former journalist, whose first job was with the Wolverhampton Express & Star, he became a corporate communications publisher based in London. A widower, with a son and daughter, Robert and his partner live in Leighton Buzzard. He has a superb collection of Elvis records, his favourite being 'Lawdy Miss Clawdy', and his other interests include Charles Dickens, ancient Greek and Roman history, and gravestones.
