Hello and welcome to HST Books,

I remember hearing a quote from someone (I cant remember who.) “Everywhere I go I bring a dictionary with me, because it has every book ever written inside.” Think about it, 26 letters are responsible for some the finest reading history has to offer.

I am a book collector with a main focus on Hunter S. Thompson. HST Books grew out of my needs as a collector. Over the years I found it was a tricky business trying to find the right editions, prints and articles at the right price. Another major problem I encountered was trying to get books in the best possible condition. So the main aim of this site is to help you along  with your collecting and hopefully I’ll add some interesting HST related stuff along the way. There are interviews and reviews. One or two competitions may pop up from time to time.

I’ll do my best to keep the site simple and easy to navigate. In the links above you’ll find quite a comprehensive list of his books, articles, essays and general writing by or connected to him. This list is a work in progress. I’m constantly adding to it. If you have anything to add feel free to contact me.

I’m just a longtime fan of Hunter Thompson and collector of his work. This site has no connection to his estate. Although I am lucky enough to have come across (and maintained contact with) some folks who knew him, I cannot pass on any contact information or messages of any sort.

I will not value any books, nor will I buy any. Nor will I find a buyer for you. I’m sorry, but the volume of emails I get regarding these matters became too much for a working stiff like me to handle in my spare time. So don’t ask, as a flat-out NO often offends.

Enjoy, and remember. It’s all about the books.

Marty.
