Description:
In Woody Creek, Colorado, Ralph Steadman visited his friend Hunter S. Thompson to complete a book they had been co-writing. But when Steadman met Jones the cat he was utterly seduced. Jones proved to be a master manipulator: ingratiating when he wanted something, serenely self-absorbed when he didn't; one moment disarmingly placid and fluffy, the next, a vicious, territorial, claw-wielding terror. No one, not Steadman, Thompson, or the late John Belushi, another visitor to Woody Creek, was any match for Jones's wiles.
Expand description
Inspired by Jones's manic energy, Steadman produced an irresistible combination of words and images that bring Jones vividly to life. The cat's anarchic sense of fun mirrored Steadman's, and it led to an extraordinary and intimate understanding between them. Steadman captures the special grace of cats and the strange power they have to enchant us.
