Publisher Notes
Letters spanning the years between 1968 and 1976 highlight the author's biting wit, scary powers of observation, and encounters with such notables as Jimmy Carter, Tom Wolfe, and Kurt Vonnegut.
Media Reviews
"Thompson's reportage has an impressionistic side--for which his fans, including this one, are profoundly grateful. These untidy letters are welcome, showing us as they do a great American original in his lair."
