About This Item

Prentice Hall,, 1981, 1981. Hardcover. Collectible - Near Fine/Near Fine. Octavo, hardcover, book is near pristine except that publisher's binding is foxed at spine edge of endpaper, else as new and probably the new ones look the same. Clean, unmarked. Octavo, hardcover, in turquoise pictorial dj. 162 pp. Cassady was a genius of life lived on the edge of the abyss. Now, William Plummer strips away the mystery surrounding this enigmatic figure. Plummer brings Cassady to life: his coming of age in a Denver flophouse, his hustling across America, the car thefts that landed him in jail, his meeting with Kerouac and their mad-cap cross-country adventures, his experiments with sex and drugs, his second marriage to Carolyn Cassady, his teaming with Ken Kesey and the Merry Pranksters on an epochal acid trip, and finally his bizarre death.
