From a research stand point, the book does a great job summarizing Elvis' FBI involvement. Some of the dates that Giorgio provides in the book are very, very hard to find unless you look real deep and many of the documents she summarizes are very hard to read. For those aspects alone, I think the book was worth the purchase.
Bottom line is that today's Graceland or Elvis Presley Enterprises want to bury these areas of Elvis' life. This is not the tourist destination, white-washed image they need to market, so in turn, you'll never get the information unless someone tells you where to look.
I recommend this book for those with an open mind. If you begin to read with a close-minded point of view, you'll never get what Giorgio is saying or appreciate the amount of work to bring documents to life that would otherwise be buried.
I'm not saying that I agree with what Giorgio's conclusions are in the book but for the facts alone, it's a great book to read.

Excellent ! First off, EVERYONE needs to IGNORE the ramblings of '' JohnDrakeM6 " ! The Man does NOT know his butt from a Hole in the Ground !!! ELVIS is Still Very Much ALIVE ! The Real Story has been told by Elvis himself in a 2 hour + Documentary Interview that he gave that was recorded and released in Jan. 2012 ! That was NOT Elvis in that casket ! It was a Wax Dummy! That is what was in the 900 lb Copper Casket along with a portable AC unit to keep the Wax from melting. But when Wax gets cold, it produces '' Condensation '' , beads of water. Everyone that observed the '' body '' in the coffin noticed that the forehead had '' beads of sweat '' Dead Bodies Don't Sweat ! Gene Smith, Elvis's 1st cousin said that the Sideburns had been ''glued'' on and kept coming loose, sticking out ! Gene also stated that ''everyone'' could feel the ''chilled air'' all around the casket that was coming from the AC unit within the coffin.When Gene asked Vernon where Elvis was , Vernon replied , '' He's safe, He's Upstairs . Don't worry . We had to put something on display for the fans '' ! 'ELVIS did NOT Die on August 16, 1977! NO ONE is actually buried there in the Meditation Garden in back of the Mansion. That's just for the Fans, the NON-Believers and the Tourists. All of Elvis' family members that have already passed on are buried somewhere else in a Private Cemetery and ELVIS IS Very Much STILL ALIVE !! He never really stopped making his music ! He has been recording and making music all this time . He just can''t release any of his songs using his real name anymore because of EPE,Inc. He has been using different alias ever since . Elvis Aron Presley is now living as Jesse Presley, aka Jon Burrows and several other various ''alias''. He staged and faked his death with the help and knowledge of Col. Tom Parker, Dr. '' Nick '' , Joe Esposito , and the FBI by doing a '' Body Swap '' with a Terminal Bone Cancer patient Roscoe Holloway of Germantown, TN of whom Dr. Nichopolous had located. After some minor cosmetic surgery they made Roscoe Holloway look like Elvis, a ''double'' which fooled the Paramedics , the hospital personnel and most family members. Elvis, aka Jon Burrows, was a U.S. Special Federal Agent that worked undercover in various '' sting operations '' against known members of the SDS , Weather Underground Terrorist Group. The SDS Weather Underground Terrorist Group was responsible for numerous multiple bombings of Police Departments , Federal and State Court Houses and other public buildings during the 1960's and 1970's. Charles William '' Bill '' Ayers was the SDS Leader of the Weather Terrorist Group, along with his cohort Bernardine Rae Dohrn, was a personal friend and Mentor to a one Barry Soetoro, aka Barack Hussein Obama and it was the SDS Weather Underground Terrorist Group that put Barry Soetoro, aka Barack Hussein Obama into Politics and made him the Socialist Thug that he is and a threat to the American way of life as we know it. Elvis, aka Jon Burrows, the name he used when working for the DEA and later for the FBI as a Special Federal Agent, was appointed by the former late President Richard M. Nixon and Elvis, aka Jon Burrows, worked as a Federal Agent from December 1970 untill his official retirement in December 2004.
On August 15, 1977 , Elvis, aka Federal Agent Jon Burrows,
was the Goverment's '' Secret Witness '' in '' Operation Fountain Pen '' and He testified in Federal Court against a well known member of the Mafia Organized Crime Syndicate, a one Fredrick Peter Pro of the '' Fraternity '' On August 16, 1977, Elvis, aka Federal Agent Jon Burrows, entered the Federal Witness Protection program where he stayed until July 1978. Then Agent Jon Burrows, aka Elvis, returned to Washington D.C. where he worked for the DEA and the FBI Counter-Intelligence Branch until his official Retirement in December2004, and ending 34 years of dedicated Federal Service. Elvis, aka Jesse /Jon Burrows is currently in the Federal Witness Protection program because of past threats made by members of the SDS Weather Underground Terrorist Group, Bill Ayers and past threats by certain key members of the Mafia Organized Crime Syndicate, of which Agent Burrows, aka Elvis took part in various undercover '' sting operations '' to indict and bring them to Justice. He is being kept in the Federal Witness Protection Program by the U.S Government because he knows certain facts about the Government mainly the Obama Administration that they don’t want him revealing. All these facts are told in a documentary interview that Elvis / Jesse, aka Jon Burrows, gave, recorded and released on a DVD in January 2012. Elvis, aka Jon Burrows, also recorded and released a brand new CD of 15 songs in January of 2012. Both have been voice authenticated by Computer analysts 100 % as the Voice of Elvis Aron Presley. Elvis was a Bonded, Certified & Trained Deputy Sheriff with the Shelby County Sheriff's Dept. in Memphis,TN, a Reserve Police Captain in the Memphis PD , a Reserve Police Captain with Denver PD and a Reserve Deputy Sheriff with the LA County Sheriff's Dept.
He was nominated as One of the Top 10 Young Men in America by the American Jaycees on January 16, 1971 , not for his work as a Entertainer, but for his dedication and work in Law Enforcement ! A Fulton County Deputy Sheriff (GA) was on location at a well known Underground Wax Museum in Atlanta, Georgia on the week they were closing. Vernon Presley and a couple of the Guys that worked for Elvis came in and bought a lifelike life sized wax figure of Elvis, that was being auctioned off. They made the purchase and on the way out the door, after they loaded the truck with the figurine, Vernon Presley turned to the guys at the museum counter and said " Just Wait 'til you Guys see what we're going to do with this." !

I am former law enforcement with over 25 years experience and worked in the U.S. Secret Service, SDPD,U.S. Mint Police/Treasury, U.S. Customs and Immigration, former Private Investigator and a security consultant now.
I came across this Book: Is Elvis Alive and Elvis Undercover by Gail Brewer-Giorgio at the specific recommendation of a lady named Linda Hood Sigmon("Shuma") who claims Elvis is alive and under the name "Jesse"(age 78). Elvis also used the name "Jon Burrows" while he was on tour and later as his status as a "special assistant" to the BNDD the forerunner of DEA.(Credentials given to him by President Richard Nixon at the White House in 1972, my former work place in 1974-1977)
I was originally just looking at 50's music when I came across Linda Sigmon's website by mistake. I was very interested as all the facts seem to indicate Elvis "may" still be alive, but there are many discrepancies. I contacted Linda Sigmon by email and she told me to buy the book by Gail Brewer in hopes of proving that Elvis was alive and faked his death in 1977. It also came with an audio tape which was an "illegally" recorded conversation of a man who called Ms.Brewer on her telephone and sounded like Elvis. Gail Brewer seems to be selling her book with the idea/theory that Elvis Is Alive which is very interesting.
I tried to contact Ms. Gail Brewer-Giorgio with negative results. It seems she may have dropped out of site and maybe for good reason. Others I have talked to have told me that the alleged "Elvis" who called her one night, or early morning hours in 1988 was an impostor/impersonator and a fake.
It seems there are more than one person that is making some money off these "aliver" books and DVD's.
I am merely trying to get to the Truth so others will NOT be tricked or taken advantage of by the likes of charlatans or frauds trying to convince you Elvis is alive when the scientific proof says otherwise.
Don't get me wrong, I would like to believe Elvis faked his own death for whatever reason and is still alive today, but the recent voice tests prove Elvis's voices on the DVD "Elvis Found Alive" by Joel Gabriel and Gail Brewer's tape recorded conversation of Elvis are both fakes.
I am merely responding to what common sense tells me and what to do to prove or disprove such a hoax.
I have also seen this DVD by Joel Gabriel and reviewed all the facts which are interesting but lacking in fact or truth and policies and procedures with regards to FOIA and many other procedures referred to by the alleged "Elvis" in the DVD and producer Joel Gabriel.
Ultimately, I talked to people in my former agency at U.S. Secret Service and agents who actually worked on Reagan's detail DENIED any contacts or photo sessions with Elvis Presley and Reagan during the time of his presidency. (Photo shop was indicated by the agent) Even agents of the association of former Secret service agents denied that Elvis was alive and that the DVD was faked with photos that were photo shopped.
I also checked with the White House and Press Corps and they have no record of the photos of Jimmy Carter with Elvis Presley who later asked for special presidential protection which Carter "allegedly denied. (This in itself is inaccurate as the President can order "protection" for any individual he so chooses under Executive Orders. In this Faked DVD, Elvis was denied by Carter claiming he had no authority. This makes it look as if Carter lied and this is not the truth)
There was a statement from Linda Sigmon and "Jesse"(aka Elvis) claiming the DVD was good and to purchase it. Then later claimed the DVD was after all a "FAKE" and apologized for it including the alleged Jesse aka Elvis who claimed he was "extorted into doing this DVD. (also a fake/hoax, otherwise why didn't he report this to the police or FBI??)
Finally, I decided to ask some people I knew to do a "forensic" voice analysis to prove one way or another if this was really Elvis aka Jesse aka Jon Burrows in Simi Valley. So far the tests derived directly from the DVD "Elvis Found Alive" and compared with other "known" recordings of the real Elvis prove it is a fake(The test resulted on only 56% of the fake voice when you need 80% or better. So it appears to be a very good impersonator's voice)Further tests are pending now.(See Easy Voice Bio-metrics Below)********
****EVB FINAL TEST Results: March 29, 2012 BEGIN: The EVB Forensic test results are NOT positive for the alleged Elvis (impersonator)voice on the DVD. Here's what the EVB forensic technician said: "I ran the test on these new files."(including the Gail Brewer-Giorgio tape of 1988)
"Sorry, but it's NOT Elvis in the unknown file in my opinion."
"I started with 8 known Elvis files - named interview and interview 1, 2, etc up to 7."
I have one unknown Elvis file."
"When comparing the unknown to ALL the knowns - the best we get is about a 56% match."
"When comparing a known to all the other knowns - I get 80% plus match showing it is very likely him - as we know."
"If I add recordings of my own voice to the list to be tested, I also get about a 55% match of my voice with the unknown Elvis - and I know I'm not Elvis."
"So, therefore based on the EVB forensics tool, I'd have to say it's NOT him." END...
