520    Few American lives are stranger, more action-packed, or 
       wilder than that of Hunter S. Thompson. Born a rebel in 
       Louisville, Kentucky, Thompson spent a lifetime channeling
       his energy and insight into such landmark works as Fear 
       and Loathing in Las Vegas--and his singular and 
       provocative style challenged and revolutionized writing. 
       Now, two of his colleagues have interviewed the Good 
       Doctor's friends, family, acquaintances and colleagues, 
       from Hell's Angels leader Sonny Barger to Ralph Steadman 
       to Jack Nicholson to Jimmy Buffett to Pat Buchanan to 
       Marilyn Manson and Thompson's two wives, son, and longtime
       personal assistant, and woven their memories into an oral 
       biography. It's all here in its uncensored glory: the 
       creative frenzies, the love affairs, the drugs and booze 
       and guns and explosives and, ultimately, the tragic 
       suicide. As Thompson was fond of saying, "Buy the ticket, 
       take the ride."--From publisher description.
