Title: Short and Sweet
Product review: I sometimes assign Mason's light biography of Elvis in my southern history classes, and it is always a favorite of my students.Those looking for serious scholarship will be disappointed in the book. But it is a fun book that my students actually enjoy reading and provides a great foundation for a serious discussion of youth culture, race, and class relations. And, of course, it also shows students, who are only familiar with the kitsch, why Elvis mattered to so many people.
