In Fear and Loathing: on the Campaign Trail ‘72, Hunter S. Thompson recounts the 1972 presidential campaign with an acerbic tone. Offering stunning insight to American Politics, Thompson covers the Democratic primaries up through the battle between George McGovern, whom Thompson initially favored, and Richard Nixon, whom Thompson instantly disliked. 

This is a first edition, first printing of Hunter S. Thompson’s third book (printed in 1973). Signed by both Thompson and Steadman, the illustrator.
