This book is very good. It is a collection of some of the best of Hunter S Thompson's columns that he wrote for ESPN. This shows that even towards the end of his life he still had a keen eye and cogent insights into American life. Also, this book shows maturity. Gone is the youthful insanity of his early works, replaced by experience and wisdom (albeit insane wisdom.)

Like all of Hunter's works, this book is well written, the organization of the chapters has little or no organization.

I believe this was Hunter S Thompson's last book.

I read this because I like Hunter S Thompson.
