I think it will be a good one! I think Jerry was a true friend!

Jerry Schilling's Book On Life With Elvis Coming August 17 - Advance Copies And More For Elvis Week 2006 Attendees 2/16/2006
On August 17, 2006, Penguin Books will publish Me And A Guy Named Elvis, My Lifelong Friendship with Elvis Presley, by Jerry Schilling. On August 11, Jerry will appear as a guest on Day 1 of the two-day Elvis Insiders Conference during Elvis Week 2006 to discuss the book. Advance copies of the book will be on sale in the Merchandise and Memorabilia Showroom that will be set up at the Memphis Marriott Hotel where the conference will take place. A book signing with Jerry will be scheduled in the showroom following his conference appearance that day. Then books also will be available in gift shops at Graceland.
Our thanks to Jerry and Penguin for accepting our invitation to present this special opportunity for Elvis fans attending Elvis Week 2006.
Elvis Insiders can look forward to a live chat on their members-only messageboard with Jerry, which will be scheduled and announced later this year.
In the months ahead EPE will be working with Jerry Schilling and Penguin in other ways to promote this excellent and highly anticipated book. More information to come.

Personally, I am anxious to read this one!!! I've always enjoyed seeing or reading interviews with Jerry....he is very well-spoken and his stories of Elvis are fantastic!!
I had the pleasure of meeting Jerry in Memphis during Elvis Week 2000, and he was so gracious and polite. He was a part of George Klein's Reunion Show at Alfred's on Beale Street, and his stories were told with such love and admiration for Elvis. Jerry is DEFINITELY one of the good guys, and I have no doubt that his book will be very well received by Elvis fans worldwide!!!
TCB!

We will miss you dearest friend
Jerry always treated Elvis with the respect and dignity he deserved, while he was alive and since his death. I also never seen a picture of him where he had gained weight, he has always taken care of himself. Elvis bought him his house, ( in 1974 I believe) and he has said he will live there the rest of his life.Originally Posted by riley
I love Jerry!!!
He always shows great respect for Elvis and he appreciated all that Elvis did for him and valued their friendship...I think Jerry truly cared about Elvis and he wasn't just there for the ride...He is such a gentleman! I really can't wait to read his book....

Of all the Memphis mafia Jerry comes across the best as a very nice guy and a great friend to Elvis.... which cannot be said for some of the others!!
Should be an interesting read
He kisses priscillas ***.
He follows her around like a lap dog.
No doubt the book will be pro Priscilla.
We will once again hear the story of how Elvis went mad after seeing them in the kitchen together, how boring.
He backed her up on the EBTP dvd and worked on the Elvis and Me film which portrayed Elvis very badly.
I have no respect for the guy.
^I have to agree with Joanne here. I have said it in another thread about the Memphis Mafia:
I think they've long been attracted to each other. It happens. They're both good looking people. It aint easy to stand next to Elvis and still look good -- but these two both did. Schilling still has his looks whilst Priscilla has gone down the plastic surgery route, though. Plastic: a bit like her babble.
Jerry is fundamentally a good guy, I think. But there is also the "pro-EPE/pro-Priscilla" issue. I'd love for him to release an audio book. I could hear that man talk for hours.
Thanks for sharing this news Franny. I like Jerry alot, should be a good book in my opinion.

i think hes given her one.
she had it off with elvis step brother. thats been in one of their books.
As much as I dislike Morticia, you have to take anything said by any of the Stanley brothers with a truckload of salt.
i can t remember which bro it was but she was discovered making out with him in the back of the car
he was the ugly one but i don t know his name he has an interest in racing cars i believe
Is there any other kind of Stanley bro?
I heard that story and it was in a book that I read many years ago.
I think the guy in question was Billy and it was at a time when she was trying to get the brothers to sign away the rights to something and she told them that they should keep in touch and she never contacted them again.
i know it but i beleive it
Interesting, news to me
