This review is from: The Gang That Wouldn't Write Straight: Wolfe, Thompson, Didion, Capote, and the New Journalism Revolution (Paperback)
A sharp, respectful, well-informed overview of one of the richest epochs in American literature. The sketches of a young, hungry Hunter Thompson are particularly memorable. Loses a point for neglecting Terry Southern.

This review is from: The Gang That Wouldn't Write Straight: Wolfe, Thompson, Didion, Capote, and the New Journalism Revolution (Paperback)
This is a great book that, while it engaging and breezy, still puts the literary movement it chronicles in a historical construct. If you are interested in any of these authors, you'll find the book a good read.
