Elvis Presley and Richard Nixon are two of the most important and
controversial figures of the twentieth century. Although fame came
to them in very different ways, they rose from very similar
backgrounds of poverty to seek the American Dream. These two
remarkable men both had to face falls from grace, but while Nixon
rebounded from Watergate to regain a reputation as a distinguished
elder statesman, Elvis was destroyed by the pressures of fame, only
to have his image restored after his death. Here, for the first
time, the remarkable parallels in their lives are examined,
balanced on the point of their historic December 21, 1970, meeting.
Their similarities and differences as American icons are analyzed,
and numerous photographs, including all those taken during their
meeting, are included. Together, the stories of these two men form
part of the essence of American culture.
