William McKeen je autorem několika knih, které se ponořily do hlubin americké kultury a jejího hudebního dědictví. Jeho psaní zkoumá prolínání rock and rollu s novinařinou a ztělesňuje ducha „outlaw“ žurnalistiky. McKeenův styl je zároveň pronikavý i nostalgický a nabízí čtenářům jedinečný pohled na kulturní historii.
An electrifying collection of the most entertaining and illuminating writing on and from the rock-and-roll scene. "Rock and Roll Is Here to Stay" assembles the writing of those who played the music and pushed it to new limits, as well as those who were there to witness and celebrate its power. 20 photos.
Hunter S. Thompson detonated a two-ton bomb under the staid field of journalism with his magazine pieces and revelatory Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. In Outlaw Journalist, the famous inventor of Gonzo journalism is portrayed as never before. Through in-depth interviews with Thompson’s associates, William McKeen gets behind the drinking and the drugs to show the man and the writer—one who was happy to be considered an outlaw and for whom the calling of journalism was life.
