Greg McDonald and Marshall Terrill -ELVIS AND THE COLONEL An Insider’s Look at the Most Legendary Partnership in Show Business

Elvis and the Colonel: An Insider’s Look at the Most Legendary Partnership in Show Business by Greg McDonald and Marshall Terrill is a fresh biography of entertainment manager Colonel Tom Parker, a largely misunderstood figure in the life of Elvis Presley. McDonald,
who worked under Parker for years, presents a contrarian and corrective point of view on a trailblazing man. The heart of the book is the long, strong, warm, and complex relationship between two iconic men.
