Letters from Elvis
Shocking Revelations to a Secret Confidante
by Gary Lindberg
Companion: Brando on Elvis: In His Own Words Forthcoming in Spring 2022: Roots of Elvis Presley Letters from Elvis may be the most important and revealing book ever written about "The King." It is based on material contained in hundreds of handwritten and authenticated letters that Elvis and his friends—Marlon Brando, Harry Belafonte and Tom Jones—secretly wrote to their spiritual guide, Carmen Montez. Never has such an intimately revealing collection of letters surfaced about such a well-known celebrity. Letters from Elvis is an explosive revelation of Elvis's inner life, an exposé of heinous Hollywood crimes that targeted Elvis, a touching tale of friendship, an eerie ghost story, and a series of startling new Elvis mysteries. Because rigorous copyright laws prevent direct publication of the actual letters, the book also tells the story of the author's thirty-year struggle to bring this new information about Elvis to light.
