Hell's Angels a Strange and Terrible Saga
by Thompson, Hunter S
Hell's Angels: A Strange and Terrible Saga is the first book by Hunter S. Thompson.
More journalist than gonzo, Thompson researched this story by becoming a part of the infamous biker gang, the Hell's Angels, for a year in the early sixties. He went on runs, drank himself under the table, and had "encounters" with the law.
"The Edge . . . There is no honest way to explain it because the only people who really know where it is are the ones who have gone over. The others--the living--are those who pushed their control as far as they felt they could handle it, and then pulled back, or slowed down, or did whatever they had to when it came time to choose between Now and Later."
