Book Reco: Gonzo

It starts like this...

"So we shall let the reader answer this question for himself.  Who is the happier man, he who has braved the storm of life and lived, or he who has stayed securely on shore and merely existed?"

from "Security" by Hunter S. Thompson, age seventeen, 1955

...and it barrels on with over 200 pages of intimate snapshots from the life and times of the late Mr. Duke.  Perfect to pick up for only 5 minutes or hours at a time.  Gonzo's the kind of coffee table book that borders on biblical, provided you spent enough time on your couch.
