"From the legendary journalist and creator of &#8220;Gonzo&#8221; journalism Hunter S. Thompson comes the bestselling critical look at Nixon and McGovern&#8217;s 1972 presidential election.Forty years after its original publication, Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail &#8217;72 remains a cornerstone of American political journalism and one of the bestselling campaign books of all time. Hunter S. Thompson&#8217;s searing account of the battle for the 1972 presidency&#8212;from the Democratic primaries to the eventual showdown between George McGovern and Richard Nixon&#8212;is infused with the characteristic wit, intensity, and emotional engagement that made Thompson &#8220;the flamboyant apostle and avatar of gonzo journalism&#8221; (The New York Times). Hilarious, terrifying, insightful, and compulsively readable, Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail &#8217;72 is an epic political adventure that captures the feel of the American democratic process better than any other book ever written."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
