This Book Is Fantastic!,
Jim Cox, author of “Inside Graceland: Elvis’ Maid Remembers”, has done a wonderful job telling Jeanne LeMay Dumas’s story in the riveting “Elvis, Linda & Me”. Miss Dumas has been Linda Thompson’s best friend since they met in 1972 as they competed for the title of Miss USA.
With so many Presley books in print, it’s rare that a new project will be so chock full of never-before-told stories and unpublished photographs that you want to tell everybody you know to go out and purchase a copy, but that’s exactly how I feel about this book.
You won’t read about “Elvis, Linda & Me” on many Elvis websites and that’s a shame because it belongs in every true fan’s library. Forget about all the trash biographies out there and treat yourself to an honest account by a lady who was there.
For my money, the candids of Elvis in his Karate outfit/black belt during his June 1973 concert tour, with Lisa Marie in a Nashville hotel room in-between shows and unseen photos of Elvis’ bedroom were worth the price of the book… and then some!
So don’t let the price put you off. If you love and respect Elvis Presley, you’ll most likely be writing a review similar to mine after you receive this book!

|Great book from a great author,
I cannot recommend enough to anyone to read this book. Jeanne LeMay Dumas is a charming lady who has been very lucky to have met Elvis. Several pages of unseen photos (most of them taken by the author) and a candid story about her friendship with Elvis and Linda Thompson. A book not to be missed !!

|One of the Best Elvis books ever written!,
I have read over 200 books about Elvis. I completely disagree with the reviewer who said this was only for people who didn’t already know the basic Elvis stories. This has pictures of the upstairs of Graceland as well as many others that have never been released. There were also many behind the seen stories that I have never heard, and trust me I thought I had heard them all. I have been thru Graceland 34 times and met and read the books of practically every one from the ( ELVIS WORLD). DO NOT MISS THIS BOOK! Teresa Melton, Oklahoma City
