I utilize many books and websites when researching and cross referencing my classes. In this particular class I used books Last Train to Memphis: The Rise of Elvis Presley by Peter Guralnick and Elvis: A Biography by Jerry Hopkins along with MANY other Elvis books in my collection that I can list out at parent’s request. I also used websites biography.com, britannica.com, history.com, and Smithsonian.com.
