This book chronicles his career and some of his personal life. The author interviewed many of Costello's close associates, although he did not interview Elvis himself. Fans of Elvis will enjoy the copious details about which songs were played in which performances. Other readers will be a bit bored.
Elvis' love life and his tumultuous personality are presented in an interesting way, but these parts of the book lack the detail of the parts about his career. It is interesting to read about which of his girlfriends inspired which songs.
