'Gonzo Papers, Vol. 3: Songs of the Doomed: More Notes on the Death of the American Dream' is a book by the American writer and journalist Hunter S. Thompson, originally published in 1990. This third installment of the Gonzo Papers is a chronologically arranged selection of stories, letters, journals and reporting, allowing readers to see how Thompson's brand of "new journalism" has evolved over the years. It is a collection of Dr. Thompson's essays and articles. This collection is mostly made up of pieces from the Reagan era, but there are also some older stories, including excerpts from his unfinished first novel, Prince Jellyfish and The Rum Diary, which was not published on its own until 1998.
