When Shelly Powers was 7, she told her mother that she'd marry Elvis Presley when she grew up. She did - though he was an impersonator, a tribute artist she met in Las Vegas. But over her 12 years living in Vegas, she became involved with Elvis International. One of her roles at Elvis International was to interview Elvis' friends and associates, the first of which was his personal photographer, Ed Bonja. What started as one interview became many more, and with them many more friendships with people in Elvis' circle. Each of the 11 of Elvis' intimates interviewed here has a good story to tell. Each is accompanied by period photographs of Elvis and the friend, movie posters, concert memorabilia, and unusual memories that every fan of Elvis will want to read.
