  Images of Elvis chronicles the extraordinary life and career of the boy from Tupelo who shook up the world of popular music. Each remarkable chapter of his life is richly illustrated, from the electrifying stage performances of the fifties to the sell-out Las Vegas shows of the seventies, when Elvis reclaimed his crown. In the latter years the gyrations may not have required him to be filmed only from the waist up, as famously happened on one of his appearances on The Ed Sullivan Show ; but the charisma and the voice were undiminished. Three decades on from Elvis' untimely death, this book revisits the legend, capturing the sprit of the man Paul McCartney hailed as the Messiah .
