A beautifully illustrated and comprehensive biography of Ernest Hemingway, told through his extensive collection of shotguns, pistols and rifles
A wonderful book for Hemingway fans, and anyone interested in classic firearms
Ernest Hemingway is a mythic writer and alpha male. As a hunter and conservationist, he drew greatly from the strong example of Theodore Roosevelt, and he much enjoyed teaching newcomers to shoot and hunt. He was a member of his high-school gun club and went to war when he was 18. He hunted elk, deer, and bear in the American west and went on two extended African safaris, which figured hugely in his writing and changed his life.
Following years of research from Sun Valley to Key West and from Kenya to Hemingway's home in Cuba, this volume significantly expands what we know about Hemingway's shotguns, rifles, and pistols the tools of the trade that proved themselves in his hunting and in his writing.
Including short excerpts from Hemingway's works, these stories of his guns and rifles tell us as much about him as a lifelong, expert hunter and shooter and as a man.
