Smells Like Dead Elephants

by Matt Taibbi

"Smells Like Dead Elephants brings together notorious journalistic agitator Matt Taibbi's most incisive and hilarious work from his column in Rolling Stone. Written during a period in our history with no shortage of outrage to compel Taibbi's pen, these pieces paint a shocking portrait of our government at work, or rarely working. But Taibbi doesn't just hit inside the Beltway, he gets into the action."--book jacket.
