About This Item
8vo. 506, [6] pp. Original black binding, title in white on spine, first issue jacket with the white border around the photo on the rear panel (jacket slightly worn on the spine); overall in gorgeous condition. Inscribed by the author: "HST Sherry Neth Hotel July 26 '73 Cazart". Also some notations throughout.
First edition, stated first printing on the copyright page. One of Thompson's more colorful books detailing the presidential election of Richard Nixon in 1972. The inscription, from the Sherry Netherland Hotel (one of the author's favorites in New York) was most likely made while Thompson was being interviewed by one of the book's first reviewers.
