The Elvis Lover’s Guide to Graceland is the first book that combines a comprehensive guide to Elvis’s home, along with everything Elvis in Memphis, Tupelo and Nashville. A room-by-room tour of Graceland includes not only what you’ll see in each room but what events happened there, as described in the memoirs of Elvis’s family and friends. Also included is a guide to Elvis’s Memphis, showing where you’ll find the schools he went to, where he bought his cars and motorbikes, the recording studios he used, and the homes he lived in before Graceland. In addition is a guide to the music museums of Memphis, where you’ll find mementos of Elvis as well as other stars who came from or lived in the city – BB King, Rufus Thomas, Isaac Hayes, Booker T and the MGs, Al Green… and many more. This guide to Graceland is also your guide to Tupelo, where Elvis was born and where you can visit the shotgun shack he was born in, the church where he first sang, the store where he got his first guitar, and dine in his favourite diner! Finally to Nashville, where the Country Music Hall of Fame has more Elvis memorabilia. In Nashville you can also visit the Ryman Auditorium, where Elvis made his debut on the Grand Ole Opry, and tour RCA Studio B, where Elvis recorded over 200 songs including Heartbreak Hotel, Can’t Help Falling in Love and Are You Lonesome Tonight?
