Description: Hemingway was not only one of the most influential writers of the century - he was also an ambulance driver in World War I; a journalist covering the Spanish Civil War; a big-game hunter and deep-sea fisherman; a soldier with the French Resistance during World War II; an adherent of both pre- and post-Revolutionary Cuba; a passionate lover; the husband of four extraordinary women; a romantic prone to depression; a suicide; and, of course, a bestselling novelist.

In this illustrated biography, David Sandison reveals Hemingway as a complex character who was far more than the sum of his parts, and in the process illuminates both his writings and the age he helped define.
