- Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas

- Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail 1972
- This is a powerful look at the 1972 presidential campaigns, well worth reading, and recommended for anyone interested in a turning point in the Democratic Party.
- Generation of Swine
- The “Tales of Shame and Degradation” are mostly the Bush-Dukakis presidential race (from the primaries to the bitter end) of 1988, not a good platform for gonzo journalism.

- From football to Haight-Ashbury, the Ali-Spinks match and the Freak Power uprising in Aspen, Thompson is one of the few people who truly understood what the hell was going on in the sixties and seventies while they were happening.

- A piercing vision into the why of every group in the motorcycle gang scare of the sixties: outlaws and squares and cops.
