Fear and Loathing: On the Campaign Trail '72

From: The BiblioFile (Rapid River, MI, U.S.A.)
Seller Rating:
Add to BasketUS$ 495.00Convert currencyAbout this Item: Fawcett Popular Library, New York, 1974. Paperback. Condition: Good. Steadman, Ralph (illustrator). First Edition. Stated at copyright: First Fawcett Popular Library Printing, February 1974; number-line beginning w/11. Signed at title page: "H. S. Thompson". Pictorial wraps, moderate corner, edge wear, rub, some discoloration to lower spine area. Classic first edition design w/bold black titles and Steadman's godzilla clutching at the headline: "Peace in our time with honor". Pages very good, toned; no writing. Bind square, intact. Vibrantly illustrated throughout by Ralph Steadman w/several full-page illustrations. Rare, classic photos of the colorful campaign and varied cryptic symbology throughout. Near good example of this vintage title. Hunter's third published tale of mayhem and discovery travels far beyond the campaign trail in scope and finds him at the height of his incendiary, insightful talents. The best, the fastest, the hippest and the most unorthodox account ever published of the US government's presidential electoral process in all its madness and corruption. In 1972 Hunter S. Thompson, the creator and king of Gonzo journalism, covered the US presidential campaign for Rolling Stone magazine alongside the establishment newsmen of Washington. The result is a classic piece of subversive reportage and a fantastic ride on the rollercoaster of Hunter's uniquely savage imagination. In his own words, written years before Watergate: 'It is Nixon himself who represents that dark, venal and incurably violent side of the American character almost every other country in the world has learned to fear and despise.' 508 pages. Insured post. Size: 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall. Signed by Author. Book. Seller Inventory # 020479

Fear and Loathing: On the Campaign Trail '72.
Published by Arrow Books, San Francisco (1973)
UsedFirst EditionHardcoverSignedQuantity available: 1
From: Raptis Rare Books, ABAA/ ILAB (Palm Beach, FL, U.S.A.)
Seller Rating:
Add to BasketUS$ 18,000.00Convert currencyAbout this Item: Arrow Books, San Francisco, 1973. First edition of the author's third book and hallmark of campaign journalism. Octavo, original black boards. Signed by Hunter Thompson on the half-title page and subjects, George McGovern, Jimmy Carter, Gary Hart and illustrator, Ralph Steadman. Fine in a near fine first issue price-clipped dust jacket with the white boarder around the photograph of Thompson and McGovern on the rear panel. The book is notable for its introduction not only to the candidates of 1972 but also its early glimpses of future political leaders. Gary Hart of Colorado, who served as McGovern's campaign manager and would later run for and win a seat in the United States Senate, and Georgia Governor Jimmy Carter, who would himself capture the 1976 Democratic nomination and Presidency. Housed in a custom half morocco clamshell box. A unique example with this collection of signatures. Forty years after its original publication, Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail 72 remains a cornerstone of American political journalism and one of the bestselling campaign books of all time. Hunter S. Thompson s searing account of the battle for the 1972 presidency from the Democratic primaries to the eventual showdown between George McGovern and Richard Nixon is infused with the characteristic wit, intensity, and emotional engagement that made Thompson "the flamboyant apostle and avatar of gonzo journalism" (The New York Times). Hilarious, terrifying, insightful, and compulsively readable, Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail 72 is an epic political adventure that captures the feel of the American democratic process better than any other book ever written. "Thompson should be recognized for contributing some of the clearest, most bracing and fearless analysis of the possibilities and failures of American democracy in the past century" (Chicago Tribune).
