Hell's Angels: A Strange and Terrible SagaGonzo journalist and literary roustabout Hunter S. Thompson flies with the angels Hell's Angels, that is in this short work of nonfiction. "California, Labor Day weekend . . . early, with ocean fog still in the streets, outlaw motorcyclists wearing chains, shades and greasy Levis roll out from damp garages, all night diners and cast off one night pads in Frisco, Hollywood, Berdoo and East Oakland, heading for the Monterey peninsula, north of Big Sur.

Gonzo journalist and literary roustabout Hunter S. Thompson flies with the angels--Hell's Angels, that is--in this short work of nonfiction.

"California, Labor Day weekend . . . early, with ocean fog still in the streets, outlaw motorcyclists wearing chains, shades and greasy Levis roll out from damp garages, all-night diners and cast-off one-night pads in Frisco, Hollywood, Berdoo and East Oakland, heading for the Monterey peninsula, north of Big Sur. . . The Menace is loose again."

Thus begins Hunter S. Thompson's vivid account of his experiences with California's most notorious motorcycle gang, the Hell's Angels. In the mid-1960s, Thompson spent almost two years living with the controversial Angels, cycling up and down the coast, reveling in the anarchic spirit of their clan, and, as befits their name, raising hell. His book successfully captures a singular moment in American history, when the biker lifestyle was first defined, and when such countercultural movements were electrifying and horrifying America. Thompson, the creator of Gonzo journalism, writes with his usual bravado, energy, and brutal honesty, and with a nuanced and incisive eye; as The New Yorker pointed out, "For all its uninhibited and sardonic humor, Thompson's book is a thoughtful piece of work." As illuminating now as when originally published in 1967, Hell's Angels is a gripping portrait, and the best account we have of the truth behind an American legend.

Highly recommend if you’re on a budget and can’t afford a $300 suit. It comes with a bow tie, and obviously the vest, pants, and suit jacket. It fits my son perfectly.

Good Product and fair price. But shipping takes a while. Might need minor alterations on lengths. Sleeve and pants.

Definitely worth the buy
Size: Large, Color: Grey
The size large fits my fiance great. The vest and jacket are perfect size however the pants are bit snug and have to have the button moved in order for them to be buttond besides the button they are perfect. However I wish it came with the bow tie. The jackets button was sewn on to loosely so I will have to have that fixed as well but for such a decent price this suit is worth it. The qualof material is there. Just need to fix a few buttons.
