American Pop ICONS: Elvis is the debut volume in the new Icons spin-off of the bestselling American Pop series, a bold cultural history that positions Elvis Presley as more than just the King of Rock and Roll. In this sharp, engaging analysis, Taylor Prescott traces how a shy boy from Tupelo became one of the most iconic figures in American life-redefining fame, race, sex, youth, and identity in the process.
Through rich storytelling and sharp cultural insight, Prescott examines Elvis as a brand, a mirror, and a catalyst for change. Perfect for fans of pop culture, music history, and anyone interested in how a single performer came to reflect the hopes, anxieties, and contradictions of twentieth-century America.
This is not just a biography. It's a deep dive into how Elvis's image and sound transformed American culture. From the Pentecostal rhythms of his Mississippi childhood to the media frenzy of his television appearances, from his explosive impact on 1950s youth culture to his controversial place in the racial politics of rock and roll, American Pop ICONS: Elvis explores the man behind the myth-and the myth that shaped a nation.
