Sample Book Insights:

#1 In May 1967, the citizens of Memphis stood along the banks of the Mississippi River, watching as three hundred miles downstream, the floodplain of Arkansas was transformed into a landscape of cotton fields.

#2 The high pageant that kicked off the week was the arrival of the King and Queen, sitting upon their thrones with their sequined court all around them. Cotton was still king, but life on the plantations had changed so quickly that it was hardly recognizable.

#3 Memphis, Tennessee, was a city that had always been on the racial fault line. It was a town known for its outlandish characters and half-demented geniuses.

#4 The music of Memphis was about the intermingling of black and white. Elvis Presley, a redneck wizard, found a way to transmute the raw sound of Beale Street into something that would resonate across the world.
