This vivid portrait reveals both Hemingway, the writer, and
Hemingway, the hard-drinking, woman-chasing fighter and sportsman
of legend. Hemingway's decade in Key West during the 1930s was his
most productive. His only book set in the U.S., To Have and Have
Not, takes place there. Meet his circle of friends (known as "the
Mob"), his second wife, Pauline, and their two children. Hear from
Hemingway contemporaries and scholars about the man and the town
that he made famous.
This new edition has been updated to include a record of the
author's exploits in Bimini and Cuba. Accompany Hemingway on
fishing expeditions in the Gulf Stream and to Cuba and Bimini
aboard his custom-built boat, Pilar. Learn of his doomed love
affairs, his patriotic activities during World War II, and his
writing experiences in an old farmhouse in Cuba.
Filled with photos (some of which were not available in the
first edition), this book also includes a two-hour walking tour of
Key West and a tour of Hemingway's favorite Cuban haunts. A treat
for Hemingway fans!
