Thompson, the founder of gonzo journalism. Matt Taibbi, contributing writer for Rolling Stone and author of four New York Times bestsellers, and William McKeen, author of Outlaw Journalist, a biography of Hunter S. Thompson, and chair of Boston University’s Department of Journalism, are just two of the special guests speaking at this year’s GonzoFest Louisville.

Thompson's Manic Ten-Year Crusade Against American Fascism. More guest speakers will be added and announced at a later date. During this year’s lectures, conversations and panels, local, regional and national names in journalism will trace the rapid evolution of gonzo journalism from the New Journalism of the 1960s through the Nixon era in which Hunter made his most indelible mark and to the journalists of today and their relationship to the current political climate and media environment. In addition to lectures and panels, GonzoFest Louisville will showcase spoken word artists and poets, as well as live art by local artist Braylyn Stewart and local gonzo artist Grant Goodwine, who studied with Ralph Steadman.

    THE INDIANA MAGAZINE OF HISTORY VOL. VIII DECEMBER, 1912 No. 4 MORGAN’S RAID IN INDIANA. BY MARGRETTE BOYER. [The following painstaking study of Morgan’s Raid in Indiana was pre- pared as a thesis by Miss Boyer, a student in Butler College. It is the fullest account we have seen, and as such we are glad to give it publicity, believ- ing it to be a valuable addition to the literature that exists on this romantic episode of our State’s history.-E~~To~.] STUDY of Morgan’s raid in Indiana reveals that it was im- A portant in the history of the State and of the nation. It is not from a military standpoint, however, that we can estimate the historical value of this dashing exploit. It had practically no influence upon the outcome of the Civil War, and it failed in all that it meant to accomplish.
