In an April 2022 discussion many found the previews quite dubious:

I have sent him a message asking the question. He is more than just a fan though he ran the official Elvis Presley Fan Club of Great Britain for years, is a broadcaster and has met both Elvis and Colonel.

Isn't Todd the guy presenting Elvis with an award (prior to his final concert) at the airport in Indianapolis in June '77?

Last year a Brazilian newspaper published an interview with Peter Guralnick (last year the biography written by Guralnick was released in Brazil) and he commented that he was writing a book about Tom Parker, as a source he had hundreds of letters written and received by Cel.

If this is true l hope that this will be a balanced book about Parker. Because in first two books about Elvis Parker was described almost always in a positive light.
