From the moment that he first shook up the world in the mid 1950s, Elvis Presley has been one of the most vivid and enduring myths of American culture. Last Train to Memphis: The Rise of Elvis Presley is the first biography to go past that myth and present an Elvis beyond the legend. Based on hundreds of interviews and nearly a decade of research, it traces the evolution not just of the man but of the music and of the culture he left utterly transformed, creating a completely fresh portrait of Elvis and his world. This volume tracks the first twenty-four years of Elvis' life, covering his childhood, the stunning first recordings at Sun Records ("That's All Right," "Mystery Train"), and the early RCA hits ("Heartbreak Hotel," "Hound Dog," "Don't Be Cruel"). These were the years of his improbable self-invention and unprecedented triumphs, when it seemed that everything that Elvis tried succeeded wildly. There was scarcely a cloud in sight through this period until, in 1958, he was drafted into the army and his mother died shortly thereafter. The book closes on that somber and poignant note. Last Train to Memphis takes us deep inside Elvis' life, exploring his lifelong passion for music of every sort (from blues and gospel to Bing Crosby and Mario Lanza), his compelling affection for his family, and his intimate relationships with girlfriends, mentors, band members, professional associates, and friends. It shows us the loneliness, the trustfulness, the voracious appetite for experience, and above all the unshakable, almost mystical faith that Elvis had in himself and his music. Drawing frequently on Elvis' own words and on the recollections of those closest to him, the book offers an emotional, complex portrait of young Elvis Presley with a depth and dimension that for the first time allow his extraordinary accomplishments to ring true. Peter Guralnick has given us a previously unseen world, a rich panoply of people and events that illuminate an achievement, a place, and a time as never revealed before. Written with grace, humor, and affection, Last Train to Memphis has been hailed as the definitive biography of Elvis Presley. It is the first to set aside the myths and focus on Elvis' humanity in a way that has yet to be duplicated.Binding Type: Paperback

Perfect Sunscreen for Acne-Prone Skin! ☀️✨
Size: 2.5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I absolutely love this sunscreen! Eucerin has honestly become one of my favorite skincare brands because this is one of the only sunscreens that works well with my acne-prone skin. It doesn’t feel heavy or greasy, doesn’t clog my pores, and most importantly, it doesn’t break me out. The finish feels lightweight and comfortable for everyday wear.
The only small downside is that if it gets into your eyes, it can burn a little, so I try to avoid applying it too close to the eye area. Other than that, it’s amazing and I will definitely keep repurchasing it

Really good spf
Size: 2.5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I’ve been using this for a little while now and I actually really like it. It feels nice on the skin, doesn’t feel heavy, and leaves my face looking fresh and smooth. I also noticed my skin feels softer after using it consistently. Definitely something I would buy again.

Pretty lightweight
Size: 2.5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Although it still leaves a little bit of a shine ( more of a dewy look), there is definitely not that much of a greasy feel which really helps me to keep being consistent with using sunscreen because my big issue with using other sunscreens is that they're too greasy feeling and not lightweight and leave too much of a shine on my already oily face.

Not for sensitive skin
Size: 2.5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I have combination skin, prone to acne, and sensitive skin. Even though this is labeled as non-comedogenic and best suited for oily skin, I still experienced acne because the consistency of the sunscreen is really thick. It makes it hard to blend (really hard) and upsets my skin.
It also smells a lot like alcohol, more so than most sunscreens, even those from this brand.
I bet it's good for some skins but it simply wasn't for me.
