The Proud Highway
is a literary milestone. The first volume in Hunter S. Thompson’s intimate letters begins with a high school essay written in 1955, and takes us through 1967, when the publication of Hell’s Angels made the author an international celebrity.

Thompson’s prolific and often profound correspondence gives us an unforgettable insight into the world during the Cold War era, as well as an authoritative introduction to the cultural revolution of the sixties. With a vicious eye for detail and rude wit he writes to such luminaries as Norman Mailer, Tom Wolfe, Lyndon Johnson and Joan Baez. These letters represent the evolution of the original, a singular voice defying an era of banality, and cements Thompson’s reputation as one of the great romantic journalistic figures of our time.
