August 19 - Don't Ask Forever

An expanded version of Joyce Bova's excellent 1994 memoir, "Don't Ask Forever: My Love Affair With Elvis", has just been released this week as an eBook. The original print version isn't too easy to find and often sells for a high price, so this option will appeal to those fans who want some further and detailed first-hand information on what Elvis was doing in the early 1970s. Of greatest interest to most people will be the author's statement that the book contains "...dozens of digitally enhanced color photographs. Many of them are new and were not in the original book..."

Description:
In this revised and updated version of her 1994 hardcover, Joyce Bova has written an additional chapter, which most revealingly chronicles her personal life before and after Elvis. She also discusses the Presley/Nixon meeting and reiterates the real reason behind Elvis’s visit to Washington, D.C. Additionally, there are dozens of digitally enhanced color photographs. Many of them are new and were not in the original book, along with some that were. She has added a postscript divulging some events she neglected to include in the hardcover, as well as a very touching P.P.S. 

Joyce is an identical twin. Elvis was born an identical twin. Joyce shares her innermost thoughts, and Elvis’s, about his conflicts in coping with the absence of his twin and how severely it impacted his life.
