Elvis Presley and the women he dated



Alanna Nash, the esteemed author who has written several exceptional books about Elvis' life onstage and off, wrote "Baby, Let's Play House Elvis Presley and the women who loved him.

The story, facts, insights, firsthand accounts, etc. that are contained in the book Alanna Nash wrote should be the "go to book" concerning Elvis and the women he dated.

A summary, and availability, of this book is found in the Amazon link http://www.amazon.com/Baby-Lets-Play-House-Presley/dp/0061699853 http://www.amazon.com/Baby-Lets-Play-House-Presley/dp/0061699853

Many of the women who Elvis dated have written their own books, stories, etc. and/or provided their personal stories to authors such as Alanna Nash. They include but are not limited to Dixie Locke, June Juanico, Barbara Hearn, Anita Wood, Margit Buergin, Elisabeth Stefaniak, and Joan Blackman, Also Elvis dated, and by all accounts loved, Ann Margret, and Linda Thompson.

There are varying accounts pertaining to Elvis' relationship with Ginger Alden but the facts are; they dated, she lived with Elvis at Graceland, Elvis interacted with her and her family members, Ginger went "on the road" with Elvis for his live concert appearances, Ginger went with Elvis on his last vacation, and that Ginger Alden accompanied Elvis, and participated in, the signing/execution of his last will. Priscilla, who Elvis married, of course dated Elvis.

I would be remiss if I didn't include the relationships Elvis had with Sandie Kaye Stevens (who first met Elvis at the age of 13 and is a great asset to the "Elvis Presley community worldwide" as well as a wonderful human being), Patti Perry (who was thought of as part of Elvis' Memphis Mafia) , and Kathy Westmoreland (who has an incredible voice along and toured with Elvis for years).

Each of these women were beautiful. They were witty. They had feelings. They were with Elvis during exciting times in his life as well as the "downs" in his life. They warranted Elvis' affections. They each have a story that is uniquely their own.

I encourage Elvis Presley fans worldwide to seek out these women, pertaining to their lives with Elvis and otherwise, and support their personal and professional endeavors. They were firsthand witnesses to history...literally. To buy, and read, books concerning these women one gains insights into the "person" named Elvis Presley that can't be duplicated.

Take care and may God bless you.
