All Shook Up: The Life and Death of Elvis Presley

176 pp. | Scholastic | October, 2001 | Trade ISBN 0-439-09504-2 $$16.95
(3) 4-6 Short, punchy chapters follow Elvis from supremely gifted youth to his lonely, dissolute end. Denenberg tells the tale in a disarmingly casual narrative voice, peppered with asides and interjections. The book does a good job capturing Elvis's legendary persona but nearly fails to recognize his artistic contributions. The accompanying black-and-white photographs show Presley at his best and worst. A time line is included. Bib., ind.
