Publisher's Note
Jones is a bravo cat, who will bewitch cat lovers everywhere. Jones is a master manipulator: ingratiating when he wants something, serenely self-absorbed when he doesn't; one moment disarmingly placid and fluffy, the next, a vicious, territorial, claw-wielding terror. Steadman captures the special grace of cats and the strange power they have to enchant us.
Once upon a time, Ralph Steadman visited his friend Hunter S. Thompson at Owl Farm, his mountain home high above Aspen, Colorado. There he made the acquaintance of a certain cat named Jones. Jones was the master of all he surveyed. When he wanted something from a human, he invariably got it; the rest of the time he was serenely unavailable. And Jones was mercurial even by the standards of Hunter S. Thompson (with whom he shared mutual respect and nocturnal habits): "Both made demands and were locked into worlds reserved for selfish gods". One minute Jones was disarmingly placid and fluffy, the next a claw-wielding terror. No one who knew Jones - not Steadman, not Thompson, not even the late and great John Belushi - was any match for his wiles. In short, Jones was extremely catlike. His anarchic sense of fun mirrored Steadman's own and led to the creation of this irresistibly playful tale that will enchant humans the world over.

     What I ahve for auction is The Book of Jones by Ralph Steadman. This is an illustrated tribute to Hunter S. Thompson's cat Jones. The book is in very good condition. Name written very small in the upper right hand corner of the first and twentythird page. A very good purchase for anyone who loves cats, Hunter Thompson or the art of Ralph Steadman.
