ELVIS LIKE ANY OTHER SOLDIER: Fabulous New Edition With MANY Rare Elvis Photos!

Description: ELVIS LIKE ANY OTHER SOLDIER SPECIAL 50th ANNIVERSARY EDITION Contains over 1,500 fascinating photos, about 1,300 of which picture Elvis. Many, many of these are previously unpublished! This book may contain more never-before-seen Elvis photos from 1957-'60 than any previous publication. In addition to the 400 black-and-white pages, we feature 104 full pages in gorgeous full color. And wait till you see the amazing shot that graces our back cover! We can absolutely guarantee NO ONE can say they've seen all these photos before! It's a fascinating and accurate text and pictorial history, and the definitive chronicle of Elvis' army experience. Our amazing research department has tracked down as many living members as possible from Fort Hood as well as Elvis' Scout Platoon, in Germany, and most of these men have shared stories and never-before-seen photos with us for use in "Elvis: Like Any Other Soldier." We have also worked closely with key individuals in Germany who were personally involved with Elvis when he was there. Besides the truly amazing photos, we included 40 pages of text, transcripts, interviews, letters, telegrams, and other authentic pieces of correspondence from Elvis, between March 24, 1958 and April 1960 (excerpted from "Elvis: Word for Word" plus some newly-discovered items). To cap things off there is even an army-related music and memorabilia section. "Elvis: Like Any Other Soldier" is a deluxe edition and is huge: 504 pages, all on beautiful glossy (100g) coated stock and with a gorgeous hard cover and matching dust jacket. Each book is individually sealed in plastic wrap. Book cover price is just $49. For PRIORITY MAIL, delivery to any U.S. address is $15.

HERE IS WHAT THEY ARE SAYING ABOUT THIS BOOK I didn't think Jerry Osborne's “Elvis: Word for Word” could be equaled, but “Like Any Other Soldier” now takes its place among the truly essential Presley books, an elite club with very few members. With countless photos I never knew existed, I got a thorough, chronological education in what army life was like for Elvis on a day-to-day basis. Key to the in-depth research was the authors’ mission to contact as many of the soldiers they could find who worked with, lived with, ate with, traveled with, played with, stood in line with, and even sang with a good soldier known as number U.S. 533 107 61. Astonishingly, they reached over 40 of these individuals — some still in Germany — and their stories and photos are finally shared with Elvis fans all over the world. I am pleased to say “Elvis: Like Any Other Soldier” has joined “Elvis: Word for Word,” both permanently on display in our den. —Deana Martin I just got the preview copy of "Elvis: Like Any Other Soldier." Holy hell, it's incredible! I'm mesmerized! This is an incredible book. Great research and fantastic photos! Four stars! —Steven B. Roberts Unlike many other army releases, "Elvis: Like Any Other Soldier" is not only about Elvis in Germany, but covers his entire army period. You will find many rare private candids from soldiers who actually served with Elvis, who also share many first-hand stories. One highlight of the book is a recently found box of color photos from Grafenwhör. Though not best quality, color candids are a true rarity! You will even find photos of Elvis in Weiden (which is only 15 miles from the Czech Republic), which puts an end to the discussion of if and when Elvis visited Weiden. But there are so many more photos and stories to enjoy. "Elvis: Like Any Other Soldier" is highly recommended, and simply the best publication about Elvis army days so far. —E-Cat Spearhead Collection I have a file filled with information and reviews on hundreds of books written about Elvis. There are only a few generally considered cream of the crop, but “Elvis: Like Any Other Soldier” is absolutely one of them. Osborne Enterprises has done it again. What an outstanding book. I also loved co-author Barbara Hahn's account of all the research and how things came together. That was an interesting and satisfying project that no one else would have even attempted. With over 500 pages and 1,300 photos of Elvis, you will never find a more complete history of Elvis Presley’s army experience. Even if you don’t like to read, you can spend hours just going through the photos. The bonus material is also a huge plus. I like everything about this book. —Phil Arnold There are countless books about Elvis Presley, but few give even a chapter to his army years. Now, “Elvis: Like Any Other Soldier” is the definitive book that covers it all, from basic training at Fort Hood, to his Scout Platoon in Germany. Over 1,500 pictures, many never before seen or published, 504 glossy pages, personal letters, documents, and a chronological history make this the definitive look at his army experience. Nearly three years of extensive research and documentation give us a "you are there" look through the eyes of his army buddies who were there with him. Personal interviews with nearly 40 of the surviving soldiers and countless others who got a rare chance to see Elvis up close, and away from the spotlight. Their personal pictures and stories are fascinating, and tell of a man who was there to serve his country and be like everyone else. Sp4 Connie Ewka summed it up by saying, "Whether in the barracks, out in the field, or at a party, he was always just like another one of the guys" Here's a big salute to co-authors Jerry Osborne and Barbara Hahn ... “Elvis: Like Any Other Soldier” is a winner! —Alex Ward Host of "Pink & Black Days" oldies show on Sirius/XM satellite radio This is not a used book. It is factory sealed in shrink wrap, and you are buying directly from the publisher. ISBN number for this title is: 0-932117-54-6. Do yourself a favor and read the many comments left in our Feedback File, raving about not just this item but all of the products and services we offer. We are proud of our many years on eBay (since 1998), with thousands of great comments, and NEVER a complaint! U.S. delivery is only sent by Priority Mail.
