Hell's Angels: A Strange and Terrible Saga

by Hunter S Thompson

Hell's Angels: A Strange and Terrible Saga Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Gonzo journalist and literary roustabout Hunter S. Thompson flies with the angels--Hell's Angels, that is. He's lived with them, he knows them and their machines, he speaks their langauge,and he reports it back to the world with all the fearsome force of a souped-up cyclone burning rubber.

Review:

"Thompson has presented us with a close view of a world most of us would never encounter. His language is brilliant, his eye remarkable."
-The New York Times Book Review

Review:

"Superb and terrifying." --Studs Terkel, Chicago Tribune

From the Paperback edition.

About the Author

The Modern Library has played a significant role in American cultural life for the better part of a century. The series was founded in 1917 by the publishers Boni and Liveright and eight years later acquired by Bennett Cerf and Donald Klopfer. It provided the foundation for their next publishing venture, Random House. The Modern Library has been a staple of the American book trade, providing readers with affordable hardbound editions of important works of literature and thought. For the Modern Library's seventy-fifth anniversary, Random House redesigned the series, restoring as its emblem the running torchbearer created by Lucian Bernhard in 1925 and refurbishing jackets, bindings, and type, as well as inaugurating a new program of select-ing titles. The Modern Library continues to provide the world's best books, at the best prices.
