Any recommendations for starting out with Hunter S. Thompson? I saw the Book Barn Hall of Fame had Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas and The Rum Diary, but I thought I had remembered people saying Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas was one of his weakest books and The Rum Diary doesn't interest me nearly as much as his more non-fictional work. I was leaning towards Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail or maybe one of the Gonzo Papers, but I am definitely open to anything.

Hello Pity posted:I'd go with the first volume of the Gonzo Papers, The Great Shark Hunt. It's fairly broad and covers a long time-span. I found the Campaign Trail a bit hard to get into without much knowledge about the politics of the time he was writing in. Thanks. I have a decent knowledge of the politics at the time, but The Great Shark Hunt was defintiely an option I was considering. Knowing me I will probably get both.
