The second volume of Peter Guralnick's critically acclaimed Elvis Presley biographies

'Homeric in its play of beauty and folly, this is a monumental work'
INDEPENDENT ON SUNDAY

'Riveting ... A masterwork'
WALL STREET JOURNAL

The next chapter in the definitive biography of Elvis picks up where Last Train to Memphis closed with Presley's military service in Germany 1958 and ends with his death in Memphis, 1977. Careless Love chronicles the unravelling of the dream that shone so brightly, homing in on his very close, and very complex relationship with his lifelong manager, Colonel Tom Parker.

It's a breathtaking drama that places the events of a too often mistold tale in a fresh, believable and understandable context. This is the quintessential American story, encompassing race, class, wealth, sex, music, religion and personal transformation.

Written with grace, sensitivity and passion, Careless Love is a unique contribution to our understanding of American popular culture and the nature of success, giving us true insight into one of the most misunderstood public figures of our times.

'It must be ranked among the most ambitious and crucial biographical undertakings yet devoted to a major American figure'
