Destined to Die Young is the definitive examination of why the world lost Elvis Presley on August 16, 1977, when he was only 42 years old. Author Sally Hoedel has painstakingly researched the subject and offers factual and scientific data—plus never-before-published information she gained by interviewing people who personally knew Elvis—to support her claim that Elvis Presley was never going to live a long life.

In this well-documented book, Hoedel explores how prescription medication was only one aspect of his compromised health and did not ultimately cause his demise. She examines Elvis Presley—a son, husband, father, and devoted friend—while ploughing through the negative hype and legendary myths surrounding the man. Elvis’ downward spiral of health struggles is presented and, for the first time ever, it is revealed that he suffered from disease in nine of eleven bodily systems, five of which were present from birth. This book dispels the long-held theory that abuse of prescription drugs is what killed Elvis.

Destined to Die Young is for anyone who is curious to know the true story of one of the world’s most famous cultural icons. For longtime Elvis Presley fans, it provides answers to lingering questions surrounding his death. You may be surprised to learn that, based on Elvis Presley’s family history and the genes he was dealt, nothing could have saved the King of Rock ‘n’ Roll.

Finally, some answers

This book was so informative. The author takes in account his whole family and puts together some many of the missing pieces that ultimately lead to his death.

That he was destined is what caught my eye

Love everything about this book!The detail of family history is incredible and absolutely fascinating keeping you turning page after page.

The Unknown

Sad to hear all Elvis went through during his life medically. I will always love Elvis forever ♥️

The revelation of the truth compared to the garbage that the media tells.

How loving and faithful Elvis was to his family and how he loved his fans.

Great insight .. however

I have the physical book which was a fascinating read and explains so much about Elvis and his acute health issues. What could be better than as a recap, Unfortunately as Dr's should not treat there family members, the narrator definately should not have narrated her own book. Her narration was extremely was dreadful
