The Big Elvis Quiz Volume One

The Big Elvis Quiz Volume One

The Big Elvis Quiz Volume One, from the author of Elvis Presley: Stories Behind the Songs, offers a variety of questions to test the knowledge of new and casual fans, as well as lifelong followers of The King.

The quiz begins with questions from Elvis’ childhood and also tests the reader’s knowledge on Elvis’ parents, The King’s early recordings, Colonel Parker, Graceland as well as the big hits and early movies. Author Matt Shepherd says: “I hope this will provide fans with a quiz over the festive period about their favourite idol, the one and only Elvis. I had great fun putting the various quizzes together and I discovered things I didn’t know about Elvis. I hope this quiz book will also double up as a fact-finding mission for those wanting to learn more about one of the world’s greatest ever performers.”

The Big Elvis Quiz Volume One features 250 questions. It is the first of a two-volume quiz book, which tackles questions on Elvis’ early life, first recordings, big hits from the 1950s, TV appearances and his earliest and some say best movies. The book ends in 1962 with two additional mixed quizzes tackling other highlights from Elvis’ career.
