Christmas with Elvis: The Official Guide to the Holidays from the King of Rock ’n’ Roll

by Robert K. Elder

Celebrate Christmas with the King of Rock n' Roll! For Elvis, Christmas at Graceland was a time for family and friends, a respite from the road and the recording studio. It was a time to sing gospel songs around the piano and give out extravagant gifts. In this spirit, Christmas with Elvis is designed like a Christmas party Elvis himself would have liked. It’s a behind-the-scenes look at the iconic music and songs Elvis sang and recorded for his bestselling holiday albums, alongside favorite stories, trivia, and Yuletide cocktails and munchies—all wrapped up with a merry Christmas twist fit for the King of Rock ’n’ Roll. Fully illustrated with color photographs and illustrations throughout.

A perfect little gift book capturing Christmas at Graceland - complete with a singing plastic tree, backyard fireworks battles, and so many lights that planes thought the driveway was a landing strip. I reviewed Christmas With Elvis for The Current.

Surprisingly delightful overview of everything related to Christmas and The King. The heart of the book is a track by track dive into Elvis's recorded Christmas music, full of tidbits about each song and recording sessions. Also includes various stories about Elvis around the holidays and remembrances. A quick read but an absolute pleasure.

A nice book to add to your collection. This book is a great little read before the holidays. Lots of fun and useful information. I would highly recommend if you love Elvis.

Note: I did find one error on page 91. Elvis and Priscilla were engaged in 1966 not 1962.

Fun book! A gift from my sister!

There are a few Christmas songs that I hadn’t known the background to. Fascinating!

Love Elvis. Always have. Always will. Don’t love all of his life choices but man…his music and moves🤩😜🔥🌟
