The Gonzo Way: A Celebration of Dr. Hunter S. Thompson

Tom Wolfe once described Hunter S. Thompson as the finest comic writer of the 20th century. Thompson was indeed this, and more - an apt observer of the American scene for almost four decades, the founding father of ‘Gonzo journalism’ and an inspiration to many. With his death, a vacuum was created that remains to be filled. In The Gonzo Way, wife Anita Thompson pays tribute to her late husband as a writer and as a citizen, through her own words and through interviews with those who knew him best, including Tom Wolfe, George McGovern and Douglas Brinkley.
