Title: 4 stars for the Colonel 0 stars for Elvis.
Review: Nash does a much better job with Colnel Von Kujik than she does with The King. The book lacks the depth needed to be really compelling. Its matter of fact journalistic style falls short of prose and the perspective is too far removed from the subject to be insightful. So much retread grist from the mill about Elvis; very atypical portrait filled with more tales from the toilet and drug induced dimentia. This book would have been better served if she focused exclusively on the Colonel. The perfunctory way Nash deals with Elvis is boring and shallow. The best new book about Elvis is called AROUND ELVIS and you should read it if you want to read about the heart and soul of Elvis Presley.
