Get a look inside the king's world at the cusp of stardom! "CBS This Morning" recently featured several of famed-Elvis photographer Alfred Wertheimer's photos in a new gallery on CBSNews.com.
Wertheimer's new book "Elvis and the Birth of Rock and Roll" also features several never-before-seen photographs from early in Elvis' career. Trailing him like a shadow, Wertheimer was given unlimited access to get up close and personal with Elvis. He took nearly 3,000 photographs of Presley that year, creating a penetrating portrait of a man poised on the brink of super-stardom.
