In Elvis in Hawaii, former Hawai'i resident and celebrity biographer Jerry Hopkins tells the story of the King of Rock and Roll's twenty-year love affair with the Hawaiian Islands and its people.

A must for Elvis fans and anyone interested in 1950s, '60s, and '70s Hawai'i, this revealing portrait offers new perspectives on the life and career of a legendary performer.
