Easy Riders, Raging Bulls (Paperback, New Ed)

Peter Biskind's extraordinary book tells the story of creativity and excess in Hollywood. From the making of Easy Riders in 1969 to the release of Ragnig Bull in 1980 — when Coppola, Bogdanovich, Scorsese, Lucas, Hopper, Altman and Spielberg were at the height of their powers — Beverly Hills tossed and turned under a blanket of cocaine. All the biggest names spill their frankest stories, about sex, drugs and money, and, most venomously, about each other.

'If there is a better book about the inside of the film industry, I'd like to see it' —Nick Lezard, Sunday Times
