"A reminder of how . . . in the right hands words are scalpels with which to both surgically excise and slash at the culture." - Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, "Glorious . . . You can witness Thompson's development and deterioration unspool in real time." --Matt Labash, The Wall Street Journal, "Wenner rolls out only the good stuff . . . You know what they say,  If you got 'em . . . read 'em. " -- Vanity Fair, "At his best he has the kind of trenchant, mordant wit of H. L. Mencken and Mark Twain." - Houston Chronicle, "Wenner rolls out only the good stuff . . . You know what they say, If you got 'em . . . read 'em. " -- Vanity Fair, "Thompson is a genuinely unique figure in American journalism, a superb comic writer and a ferociously outspoken social and political critic." -Jonathan Yardley, The Washington Post, "Glorious . . . You can witness Thompson's development and deterioration unspool in real time." -Matt Labash, The Wall Street Journal, "An American original. He hit the high notes out on the ragged edge, and thousands of us heard him above the canned din of the safe center." -- Los Angeles Times, "Wenner rolls out only the good stuff . . . You know what they say, If you got 'em . . . read 'em. " - Vanity Fair, "Thompson should be recognized for contributing some of the clearest, most bracing and fearless analysis of the possibilities and failures of American democracy in the past century." - Chicago Tribune, "A reminder of how . . . in the right hands words are scalpels with which to both surgically excise and slash at the culture." -- Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, "Mr. Thompson, the flamboyant apostle and avatar of gonzo journalism, still exerts a powerful hold on the American psyche. . . . He was first and foremost an original, vivid prose voice." - The New York Times, "An American original. He hit the high notes out on the ragged edge, and thousands of us heard him above the canned din of the safe center." - Los Angeles Times

Synopsis
From the bestselling author of The Rum Diary and king of "Gonzo" journalism Hunter S. Thompson, comes the definitive collection of the journalist's finest work from Rolling Stone . Fear and Loathing at Rolling Stone showcases the roller-coaster of a career at the magazine that was his literary home. "Buy the ticket, take the ride," was a favorite slogan of Hunter S. Thompson, and it pretty much defined both his work and his life. Jann S. Wenner, the outlaw journalist's friend and editor for nearly thirty-five years, has assembled articles--and a wealth of never- before-seen correspondence and internal memos from Hunter's storied tenure at Rolling Stone --that begin with Thompson's infamous run for sheriff of Aspen on the Freak Party ticket in 1970 and end with his final piece on the Bush-Kerry showdown of 2004. In between is Thompson's remarkable coverage of the 1972 presidential campaign and plenty of attention paid to Richard Nixon; encounters with Muhammad Ali, Bill Clinton, and the Super Bowl; and a lengthy excerpt from his acknowledged masterpiece, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas . The definitive volume of Hunter S. Thompson's work published in the magazine, Fear and Loathing at Rolling Stone traces the evolution of a personal and professional relationship that helped redefine modern American journalism, presenting Thompson through a new prism as he pursued his lifelong obsession: The life and death of the American Dream.
