Hunter Thompson, master of the literary word, Proves in this single work, he is indeed a true genius. This book is not so much a read, as it is a ride. He takes us through a wild, and twisted journey through Las Vegas in search of the American Dream, Through the Eyes of Raoul Duke, alongwith his Samoan attorney, Dr. Gonzo. This is a terrific book, and without a doubt, should've been number 1 on the list of the all time greats. Hunter is a master. As Raoul Duke once said, "Buy the ticket, take the ride."
