For Elvis, Christmas at Graceland was a time for family and friends, a respite from the road and the recording studio. It was a time to sing gospel songs around the piano and give out extravagant gifts. In this spirit,
Christmas with Elvis is designed like a Christmas party Elvis himself would have liked -- it's a behind-the-scenes, definitive look at the iconic music and songs Elvis sang and recorded for his bestselling Christmas albums, while also digging into the archives and telling some of the King's favorite holiday stories. Also sprinkled throughout are Elvis quotes, trivia, Yuletide cocktails and Elvis-inspired munchies, and full-color photos and art throughout, all wrapped up with a merry Christmas twist fit for a King.
