The first volume of the Gonzo papers shows the brilliant, ranting observations and cultural commentary of Thompson at his best. nThe first volume in Hunter S. Thompsons bestselling Gonzo Papers offers brilliant commentary and outrageous humor, in his signature style. nOriginally published in 1979, the first volume of the bestselling Gonzo Papers is now back in print. The Great Shark Hunt is Dr. Hunter S. Thompsons largest and, arguably, most important work, covering Nixon to napalm, Las Vegas to Watergate, Carter to cocaine. These essays offer brilliant commentary and outrageous humor, in signature Thompson style. n nRanging in date from the National Observer days to the era of Rolling Stone, The Great Shark Hunt offers myriad, highly charged entries, including the first Hunter S. Thompson piece to be dubbed gonzo--The Kentucky Derby Is Decadent and Depraved, which appeared in Scanlans Monthly in 1970. From this essay a new journalistic movement sprang which would change the shape of American letters. Thompsons razor-sharp insight and crystal clarity capture the crazy, hypocritical, degenerate, and redeeming aspects of the explosive and colorful 60s and 70s.n
