Stylish reissue of a classic novel first published in the 1970s:
Hunter S Thompson's ether-fuelled, savage journey to the heart of
the American Dream. 'We were somewhere around Barstow on the edge
of the desert when the drugs began to take hold...And suddenly
there was a terrible roar all around us and the sky was full of
what looked like huge bats, all swooping and screeching and diving
around the car, which was going about a hundred miles an hour with
the top down to Las Vegas...' As knights of old buckled on armour
of supernatural power, so Hunter S. Thompson enters Las Vegas armed
with a veritable arsenal of 'heinous chemicals'. His perilous,
drug-enhanced confrontations with casino operators, bartenders,
police officers and assorted representatives of the Silent Majority
have a hallucinatory humour and nightmare terror never before seen
on the printed page.
