Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail '72

'The best stuff on the campaign I've read anywhere.'
Nicholas Von Hoffman, Washington Post

'Obscene, horrid, repellent ... driving, urgent, candid, searing ... a fascinating, compelling book!'
New York Post

'Hunter S. Thompson is the most creatively crazy and vulnerable of the New Journalists. His books are brilliant and honorable and valuable ... the literary equivalent of Cubism: all rules are broken.'
Kurt Vonnegut Jr

'Gaze in awe ... Hunter Thompson does in his own mad way betray a profound democratic concern for the polity. And in its own mad way, it's darned refreshing.'
New York Times

'Shocks you into laughter.'
Detroit Free Press

'Unnerving!'
Newsweek
