- Summary
- "No time left for pamphleting and leafleting, picketing and petitioning, talking and walking around. Time to TRASH THE STATE!" Abbie Hoffman? Huey Newton? No, it's P. J. O'Rourke, circa 1970. Now America's most provocative (and conservative) satirist - O'Rourke was at one time a raving pinko, with the scab on his bleeding heart to prove it.
- Through twenty-five years of his writing, Age and Guile Beat Youth, Innocence, and a Bad Haircut guides us on the journey that has taken O'Rourke from the lighthearted fun of the revolutionary barricades to the serious business of the nineteenth hole.
