Originally published in 1983, this Taschen edition chronicles Hunter S. Thompson’s chaotic assignment to cover the Honolulu Marathon in Hawaii. Accompanied by Ralph Steadman’s visceral, ink-splattered illustrations, the narrative serves as a quintessential example of Gonzo journalism, blurring the lines between travelogue, historical critique, and personal hallucination.
