About this product

Product Information

Brazen, incisive, and outrageous as ever, Hunter S. Thompson is back with another astonishing volume of his private correspondence, the highly anticipated follow-up toThe Proud Highway.When that first book of letters appeared in 1997,Timepronounced it "deliriously entertaining";Rolling Stonecalled it "brilliant beyond description"; andThe New York Timescelebrated its "wicked humor and bracing political conviction."Spanning the years between 1968 and 1976, these never-before-published letters show Thompson building his legend: running for sheriff in Aspen, Colorado; creating the seminal road bookFear and Loathing in Las Vegas;twisting political reporting to new heights forRolling Stone;and making sense of it all in the landmarkFear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail '72.To read Thompson's dispatches from these years -- addressed to the author's friends, enemies, editors, and creditors, and such notables as Jimmy Carter, Tom Wolfe, and Kurt Vonnegut -- is to read a raw, revolutionary eyewitness account of one of the most exciting and pivotal eras in American history.
