Industry Reviews

"Best known for collaborating with the 'gonzo' writer Hunter S. Thompson in the 1960s and '70s, Ralph Steadman provided that era with a signature visual style: satirical, strung out, and suspicious of authority. A new book, Ralph Steadman: A Life in Ink, reveals the U.K.-based artist as more than just a counterculture documentarian. His sketches of London street life show a knack for capturing character in a few quick, precisely chosen pen strokes.... At 84 he still relishes turning his sharp pen on contemporary politicians." --Smithsonian magazine
