Synopsis
Forty years after its original publication, Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail âÈç72 remains a cornerstone of American political journalism and one of the bestselling campaign books of all time. Hunter S. ThompsonâÈçs searing account of the battle for the 1972 presidencyâÈ'from the Democratic primaries to the eventual showdown between George McGovern and Richard NixonâÈ'is infused with the characteristic wit, intensity, and emotional engagement that made Thompson âÈêthe flamboyant apostle and avatar of gonzo journalismâÈë ( The New York Times ). Hilarious, terrifying, insightful, and compulsively readable, Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail âÈç72 is an epic political adventure that captures the feel of the American democratic process better than any other book ever written.
