“Richard Nixon was an evil man - evil in a way that only those who believe in the physical reality of the Devil can understand it. He was utterly without ethics or morals or any bedrock sense of decency.”

American journalist and author of the 1970s and '80s, best known for his gonzo journalism and the novel *Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas*. His fearless, satirical style captured the excess and chaos of counterculture and political life, blending reportage with hallucinatory prose.
