Fortunate Son: The Life of Elvis Presley (American Portrait (Hill and Wang))

by Charles L. Ponce de Leon Author

Elvis Presley, a celebrity’s perfect storm, showcased his talent throughout his life, as demonstrated in Charles L. Ponce de Leon’s contextual Fortunate Son. While his moments of lucidity diminished, Elvis’s musical gifts remained until his end. Beyond his talent, he was fortunate. Fortunate Son traces cultural shifts in the 1950s, 1960s, and 1970s, using Elvis’s life as a brief history of American popular culture during those tumultuous decades.
