With over six hundred hard-edged graphic drawings which are geared to addle the brains of the most jaded sophisticate or the dullest illiterate, Paul’s picaresque journey is stunningly illuminated so that every every mind can grok the fullness of this voyage from Sin City to Edge City. So load up your bhong and journey back to a time when love was free, dope was cheap and a country was driven to screaming madness by its own fatal pride. This book will grab your ass like an angry Rottweiler and not let go until you finish the last page and scream for MORE!
