Description:"The 'Hell’s Angels' Letters: Hunter S. Thompson, Margaret Harrell and the Making of an American Classic" is an important revelation in the legacy of Thompson, with letters that survived precarious shipping and travel over decades, cloaked away from the public. "If 'Hell’s Angels' hadn’t happened I never would have been able to write 'Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas' or anything else . . . I felt like I got through a door just as it was closing,” Hunter told "Paris Review." When he secured a hardcover contract with Jim Silberman (Random House), the known part of the story breaks off. To whip up the final edits, Margaret A. Harrell, a young copy editor/assistant editor to Jim, was—in a break from the norm—given full rein to work with him by expensive long-distance phone and letter. This galvanizing action led to a fascinating tale. She uses the letters to resuscitate the cloaked, suspenseful withheld drama. The book peaks in their romantic get-together at his ranch twenty-one years after they last met, a moving tie maintained over the years. What happens, then?
