  ABOUT THE AUTHOR

  Hunter S. Thompson (1937–2005) was a journalist and novelist who created what came to be known as “Gonzo journalism.” A native of Louisville, Kentucky, he began writing as a sports columnist in Florida, and subsequently wrote for many newspapers. His research on the Hell’s Angels involved more than a year of close association with the outlaws—riding, loafing, plotting, and eventually being stomped. Thompson’s other works include Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, Fear and Loathing: On the Campaign Trail ’72, and The Rum Diary (a novel).

  ABOUT THE EDITOR

  DOUGLAS BRINKLEY is director of the Eisenhower Center for American Studies and professor of history at the University of New Orleans. He is the author of such award-winning books as The Majic Bus: An American Odyssey (1993), Dean Acheson: The Cold War Years, 1953–1971 (1992), and Driven Patriot: The Life and Times of James Forrestal (with Townsend Hoopes, 1992). Professor Brinkley is currently writing a multivolume biography of former president Jimmy Carter and is the co-author with historian Stephen Ambrose of Rise to Globalism. He is also the poetry commentator on National Public Radio.
