First Edition Signed
Hardcover. Condition: Fair. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. First edition. Staining on the boards and the edges of the first dozen or so leaves, thus a poor copy in good price-clipped dust jacket. Inscribed and writ large by former Hells Angels president Sonny Barger: "To Caroline[?] with love 'Sonny' Barger." The author's first book, perhaps the inaugural effort of the new participatory journalism. A crummy copy.
