"Let's get a little loud...Peter Guralnick's two-volume life of
Elvis Aron Presley, of which Careless Love is the second
installment, is not simply the finest rock-and-roll biography ever
written. It must be ranked among the most ambitious and crucial
biographical undertakings yet devoted to a major American figure of
the second half of the twentieth century."--Gaerald Marzorati, New
York Times Book Review
"Nothing written about Elvis Presley comes close to the detail,
authority, and uncondescending objectivity that Peter Guralnick has
brought to his two-volume biography...Hypnotic."--Andy Seiler, USA
Today
"Riveting...A masterwork."--Wall Street Journal
