An indispensable compendium of Hunter S Thompson's best of Gonzo.

Originally published in 1979, The Great Shark Hunt, the first volume of the bestselling 'Gonzo Papers' is Hunter S. Thompson’s largest and, arguably, most important work. These essays cover Nixon to napalm, Las Vegas to Watergate, Carter to cocaine, offering brilliant commentary and outrageous humour, in signature Thompson style.
