| Summary, Etc. |
"In early 1955, Colonel Tom Parker heard that an unknown teenager from Memphis had just drawn a crowd of more than 800 people to a Texas schoolhouse and headed south to investigate. The ensuing bond between Elvis Presley and the Colonel proved impossible for observers to understand-not during their lifetimes, and not in the decades since. It was a long-standing, deeply committed relationship, founded on mutual admiration and support. Featuring troves of never-before-seen correspondence from the Colonel's own archives, The Colonel and the King provides a unique perspective on not one but two American originals"-- Provided by publisher.
