ERNEST HEMINGWAY

By: Carlos Baker

[from jacket] This biography brings into sharp focus a picture of one of the most unusual men of our time. Previously blurred by legends and half-truths, the life of Ernest Hemingway has never until now been represented as it was, nor have the relationships between his works of fiction and his actual experiences been shown in true perspective. ... Brilliantly conveying the immense gusto of Hemingway's own life, the story spans six full decades: from a happy and surprisingly conventional boyhood in a middle-class suburb of Chicago, to worldwide fame as a literary genius and heroic activist, to the tragic denouement of the last years.
