I strongly suggest reading his book "The Proud Highway: Saga of a Desperate Southern Gentleman, 1955-1967" It's a collection of his letters, and responses, from people he wrote during that era. Incredible insight into this amazing man.

I'm a big fan of "The Great Shark Hunt: Strange Tales from a Strange Time" which is a collection of articles from the first part of his career. I haven't read The Proud Highway but it sounds good.
