Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail '72 will also make you swear he had a time machine. I guess the scale at which things change is longer than we think it is.

Yeah, absolutely. I went through a period last year where I read every HST book in one continuous binge. One of the great pleasures I had was driving SF to SLC via nevada route 50 and listening to the '72 on audiobook. Something about that really helped it sink in.

History doesn't repeat itself, but it surely rhymes.
