The world is emptier without the watchful eye of the godfather of gonzo. This scrapbook completes any serious hunter fans collection. I never knew what a talented and prolific photographer he was. Do not be with out a copy of this.

Amongst all the HST tat they are selling nowadays this is actually worh a look. You get a collection of photographs, letters and memorabilia that is certainly interesting. Wheter is has staying power I'm not sure. Great if you need to explain who HST is when visitors question your 7ft Fear & Loathing Poster!
One word of warning. I have seen several "special" versions of this going for about 200+ They look exactly the same to me so be aware.

Bought this as a gift for my son, who is really into Thompson. He thought it was the best he had read on the man. Unlike the normal biographers view, this account is made up of anecdotes and memories of his friends and those who worked with him. Those who really knew him.

There was a limited edition, numbered and with a larger size of the volume itself.

I don't mind the price, although it is pretty hefty, or the notion of a Gonzo coffee table book, so long as it is presented with great care, and I can ignore the idea that this is... Read more
