The Great Shark Hunt Gonzo Papers, Vol. 1 Strange Tales From A Strange Time by Hunter S. Thompson a.b.e-book v3.0 / Notes at EOF Back Cover: REBEL WITH A CAUSE From Nixon to napalm, Carter to cocaine, Hunter S. Thompson captures the crazy, hypocritical, degenerate, and worthwhile aspects of American society with razor-sharp insight and greater clarity than anyone writing today. Always fresh, irreverent, original, brilliant, and on-the-edge, Thompson hurls himself headfirst into each assignment and situation and comes back with a story only he could write. He aims for the naked truth and hits the nation’s jugular vein. There is no one quite like Thompson; he is unique, and we are all richer for it. “No other reporter reveals how much we have to fear and loathe, yet does it so hilariously.” — Chicago Tribune THE GREAT SHARK HUNT This book contains the complete text of the original hardcover edition.
