"Of the millions of Elvis Fans around the globe, I would place Heart Shapre' among the top ten persons for her love, mystique and dedication to King Presley. I wish her the best of luck in her new book endeavor." Capt. Bob Ferguson, Ret. Memphis Police Dept. "Some things are meant to be", this writing is based on ELVIS THROUGH MY EYES; the facts remain. Here is your friend, and you will learn about "the man". Would anyone who loves ELVIS toss his life away? Influential people like ELVIS are not forgotten no matter what. Seven lost childhood years of ELVIS' life is related by James Samuel Denson selected by Gladys Presley to help raise him. On stage beneath those costumes was a person who had struggles, FBI involvement and is a phenomenon. What was the price...the blood talks. This work was written with Priscilla and Lisa Marie in mind. To quote Elvis, "My image is one thing and the human being is another...it's hard to live up to an image"...Elvis gave possibly more than he had and his spirit still connects with all who love and understand him far beyond the emotionalism. The God in Elvis connects with the God in others. Don't miss knowing him plus the blessing this book brings as, if you shut the door here, you may be walking on Elvis' soul. As some desire only the showmanship, there is no need to say 'enjoy it' - you have that but we have "the man" - ELVIS. We were extremely fortunate to have had Elvis for so long. Yet today, his music is kept alive so beautifully by radio, TV, film and the gifted Tribute Artists world-wide; we are highly blessed with their artistry.

If you don't want to know ELVIS, then don't read ELVIS - THROUGH MY EYES. This story will reveal ELVIS's makeup and everything he had to overcome to be the performing KING you love. It is a story that wanted to be written and often wrote itself. Narrated by James Samuel Denson, who was asked by Elvis's mother, Gladys Presley, to help raise Elvis. I believe, friend, you will find as I have, the moment the last letter of the manuscript was typed, that not only you love him GREATLY, but after reading ELVIS - THROUGH MY EYES, you will feel closer to him in person and you may love him and all that he was in his "no way out" life as a close dear friend. Hopefully, you will know and understand the truth of the man as I have grown to know ELVIS who crossed his river Jordan. Heart Lanier Shapre' Las Vegas, NV April 14, 2005
