This autobiography details the story of Larry Flynt's rise from small town beginnings to become one of the richest men in America, owning a string of nightclubs, sex outlets and, of course, the infamous pornographic magazine, Hustler. Along the way, he married a go-go dancer, spent years on trial fighting obscenity, libel and contempt charges; was shot and paralyzed from the waist down; and became an unlikely defender of the First Amendment rights.
