"Nous avions deux sacoches d'herbe, soixante-quinze pastilles de mescaline, cinq feuilles d'acide-buvard carabiné, une demi-salière de cocaïne, et une galaxie complète et multicolore de remontants, tranquillisants, hurlants, désopilants... sans oublier un litre de tequila, un litre de rhum."

Au début des années soixante, Thompson, alors journaliste à San Francisco, est fasciné par les Hell's Angels. Son article sur ces seigneurs de la route fait sensation, il se lance dans la version longue : un an passé à rouler et à écrire à leurs côtés. Mais l'équipée se termine sauvagement : parce qu'il refuse de partager ses royalties, les Angels abandonnent l'homme de lettres sur une route, à moitié mort et le crâne défoncé à coups de pierres.

Raising capital is the single most sought-after and lucrative skill in the entire real estate sector. It's the one skill that, if truly mastered, can ensure you’ll always have a place in the world of investment real estate.

Hunter Stockton Thompson (July 18, 1937 - February 20, 2005) was an American journalist and author who founded the gonzo journalism movement, a style in which the writer becomes a central figure and participant in the events of the narrative. He rose to prominence with the publication of Hell's Angels (1967) and Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas (1972). The following is from a 1975 interview on gonzo journalism.

"Atenție, nelegiuiții pe două roți nu mai sunt la porțile orașului! Sunt chiar printre noi!" Așa ar fi sunat titlul vreunui ziar local din America anilor 1960 după ce Hell’s Angels ar fi dat năvală în oraș, doar ca să se distreze în stilul lor caracteristic: motoare, raiduri, femei, droguri și bere. Mituri, exagerări sau adevăruri îngrozitoare? Prejudecăți sau fapte dovedite? Ziariștii îi adorau pentru că le ofereau subiecte de scandal, iar publicul era fascinat de aerul lor amenințător și, într-un fel, misterios de răzvrătiți și antieroi neînțeleși.

La obra más enloquecida de Hunter S. Thompson, figura legendaria del nuevo periodismo. Una acción delirante: así como los caballeros de la Tabla Redonda se lanzaban en pos del Santo Grial envueltos en una armadura de poder sobrenatural, Thompson entró en Las Vegas pertrechado con un arsenal verdaderamente mágico de "nefandas sustancias químicas" en su búsqueda del Sueño Americano.

The Hell’s Angels Letters: Hunter S. Thompson, Margaret Harrell and the Making of an American Classic is an important revelation in the legacy of Thompson, with letters that survived precarious shipping and travel over decades, cloaked away from the public. “If Hell’s Angels hadn’t happened I never would have been able to write Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas or anything else . . . I felt like I got through a door just as it was closing,” Hunter told Paris Review.
