First Edition of Hey Rube: Blood Sport, the Bush Doctrine, and the Downward Spiral of Dumbness; Inscribed by Hunter S. Thompson
First edition of this classic collection from the father of Gonzo journalism. Octavo, original boards. Presentation copy, inscribed by the author on the title page, "To Austin from Missouri, H.S. Thompson." Fine in a fine dust jacket. Jacket design by Jackie Seow. Foreword by John A. Walsh.
Insightful, incendiary, outrageously brilliant, such was the man who galvanized American journalism with his radical ideas and gonzo tactics. For over half a century, Hunter S. Thompson devastated his readers with his acerbic wit and uncanny grasp of politics and history. His reign as "The Unabomber of contemporary letters" (Time) is more legendary than ever with Hey Rube. Fear, greed, and action abound in this hilarious, thought-provoking compilation as Thompson doles out searing indictments and uproarious rants while providing commentary on politics, sex, and sports—at times all in the same column.
