Rose has interviewed people who attended the shows, found original newspaper coverage, chosen and organized the many photos, and arranged it all as a fascinating travel log.
This is the Elvis that country legend Bob Wills aptly described as a 'punk', before controversy and Hollywood toned him down. The perfect companion to Sony's new box set, 'Young Man With The Big Beat' (a few of the photos in the box set, including the front, actually comes from this book).
