Rich in evocative detail--from Paris cafes to Austrian chateaus,
from the streets of Pamplona to the waters of Key West--The
Ambulance Drivers tells the story of two aspiring writers, Ernest
Hemingway and John Dos Passos, who met in World War I and forged a
twenty-year friendship that produced some of America's greatest
novels, giving voice to a generation shaken by war. In war,
Hemingway found adventure, women, and a cause. Dos Passos saw only
oppression and futility. Their different visions eventually turned
their private friendship into a nasty public fight, fueled by
money, jealousy, and lust. This is not only a biography of the
turbulent friendship between two of the century's greatest writers
but also an illustration of how war inspires and destroys, unites
and divides.
