Description
Hell's Angels is a free-wheeling, impressionistic account of the author's year-long association with the notorious biker gang.
Thompson's research involved immersing himself in the world of the Hell's Angels, documenting his experiences with the gang's members, including Charger Charley, Big Frank, and Little Jesus.
The result is a hair-raising tale of the gang's reputation, myth and brutal reality, offering a unique insight into the American dream and the counterculture movement of the 1960s.
