Elvis Presley’s Twin, Jesse Garon: The Records Show He Died…but Did He?
Elvis Presley’s Twin, Jesse Garon: The Records Show He Died…but Did He?
JESSE GARON PRESLEY is stillborn at 4:05 a.m., January 8, 1935, or maybe not…. In the ’30s South, only poverty is abundant. Laws are broken by the man on the street, up to and including the men of the cloth. Looking the other way is common; survival is the key. The DELONGPRE family is rich and powerful, but they desperately want the one thing they’ve been denied-a baby. The PRESLEYS are impoverished without the financial burden of a child. Jesse is gone, but, unexpectedly, a twin, ELVIS AARON PRESLEY, is born moments later. Records disappear by those in position to dispose of them. The DeLongpres get the child they want, THURSTON DAVIS DELONGPRE, III. The Presleys end up with Elvis. Five people share this secret for 42 years; three pass

Nice Write,
This book poses some interesting postulations regarding the twin possibilities. Well written because all the characters are tied together well I would recommend it to all my friends.

|Enjoyable Reading,
I read this book over the course of two evenings and must say that it is captivating. A very interesting theory that makes you think though it is fiction it could actually be true. It would be entertaining on the big screen.

|Great book!,
This is an interesting book. I’m not a huge Elvis fan, but to enjoy this story, one doesn’t need to be. Once I got into the heart of this writing, the history seemed so real, I forgot that it is fiction. Mr. Knight uses more characters than I’m used to, but he some how ties them together in a very tidy fashion. It takes him a few pages to get started, but once that is done, the book is ‘UN-put down-able” I strongly recommend this writing and as I mentioned previously, one doesn’t have to be an Elvis fan to enjoy it. It is not about Elvis, its about his twin.
