Author: Jay Cowan
Format: Hardback
Number of Pages: 252
Jay Cowan, who was caretaker on Thompson's ranch and a trusted friend, paints a sensitive portrait of a man who redefined participatory journalism, who captured the decadence of the era, and generally consumed more drugs and alcohol than any other living creature on the planet. A self-professed 'lazy hillbilly', Hunter Thompson would immerse himself in the researching of a story, then write it all in a multi-day frenzy of drugs and sleeplessness. In his role as America's 'rock star author', he was invited to the White House (where he claimed to have snorted coke with presidential aides) and rubbed elbows with celebrities. Featuring previously unpublished color photos, this book provides the most compelling and readable portrait to date of one of America's most extraordinary personalities.
