The special "Holiday Books" edition of The New York Times Book Review gives Adam Victor's The Elvis Encyclopedia a full-page review: "Jailhouses to Jumpsuits." Neil Genzlinger calls it "a mammoth new survey of all things King by Adam Victor, the author of “The Marilyn Encyclopedia" . . . The book is lavishly and lovingly illustrated with candid photos, movie stills, posters and assorted oddities. Best of the bunch: the cover of a 1950s magazine called True Strange, which asked that eternal question: “Did the Devil Send Elvis Presley?”
