Collected Stories from the Toronto Star
The Toronto Star 1992 1992. 1st Edition. No Binding. Fine. Very Fine. First Edition. This is a special supplement to the March 1 1992 edition of the Toronto Star collecting and publishing for the first and only time numerous stories written by Hemingway as a reporter for the Star. The Star headline says it all: "Publishers believed they had collected ALL of Ernest Hemingway's stories when they compiled his 'complete' works. They were wrong." Included i n the stories by Hemingway are a color feature on heavyweight champ Jack Dempsey and environmental reporting on dying oak trees in High Park. Several stories were written for the Star but rejected by Star editors and held in files. They were uncovered by Star reporters in the JFK Library and in the files of a Star librarian who thought they were worth saving. The Star now writes: "Inspired detect i ve work by two Toronto Star employees on a treasure hunt across two continents has unearthed a 'prize' of lost stories by famed novelist Ernest Hemingway. The discovery of the never-published stori e s will delight fans of the newspapers most celebrated writer.These stories show the development of the great novelist's distinctive writing style." The paper quotes a Hemingway scholar as saying th e s tories are a "fine example of Hemingway in full flight." Also included is the front page of the paper that day promoting the supplement. None of these stories have ever been published in a book a nd s everal have never appeared before or after anywhere besides in this supplement. FASCINATING!! A MUST for the Hemingway collector.

Overall a beautiful sturdy copy of this second edition of Hemingway's famous non-fiction text on bullfighting. Hanneman A10b. Death in the Afternoon is Hemingway's non-fiction book about the sport of bull-fighting which ranges from technical descriptions of the art of the sport to philosophical conjectures about people who are interested in or partake in bull-fighting. Hemingway first became interested in bull-fighting after attending the Festival of San Fermínin in Pamplona Spain in 1923 and became a lifelong aficionado. This technical text is enlivened by Hemingway's clear passion for the sport and keen understanding of its nuances. Although Death in the Afternoon is the author's first full book-length non-fiction piece Hemingway's love for bull-fighting can also be seen in his 1926 novel The Sun Also Rises. Hard Cover. Near Fine/Dust Jacket Included. Illus. by Gris Juan; Vandel; Rodero. New York: Halcyon House (Charles Scribner's Sons) hardcover books

Hemingway Ernest
Ernest Hemingway Autograph Letter Excerpt Signed.
Chicago: The Walden Book Shop 1930. Rare letter excerpt boldly signed by Ernest Hemingway. Published by the Walden Book Shop in 1930 the introduction begins "The following notes are excerpts from a Hemingway letter in answer to questions concerning editions and numbers of copies." It goes on to provide a long italicized quote from the letter in which Hemingway describes the printings of his early books from Three Stories and Ten Poems through the forthcoming Men Without Women 1927. The quote reads in part: ".The books have been Three Stories and Ten Poems Contact Press 1953-350 copies out of print In Our Times Three Mountains Press 1924 150 I think.They claim to be issuing a new edition. Then Scribners published The Torrents of Spring in the spring of 1926 in an unrestrained edition and The Sun Also Rises came out in the same year with I believe an attempt made to print and sell as many as possible.I own one copy of Three Stories and Ten Poems and would be very happy if it became valuable in order that I might have something to leave to my children." Signed by Hemingway in he lower right corner of the pamphlet. In fine condition. Double matted and framed with a portrait of Hemingway. The entire piece measures 26 inches by 17 inches. An exceptional example. American journalist and novelist Ernest Hemingway's legacy to American literature lies in his economical and understated writing style which he termed the "iceberg theory" and writers who came after him either attempted to emulate or avoid. After his reputation was established with the publication of The Sun Also Rises Hemingway essentially became the spokesperson for the post-World War I generation. His influence on 20th century fiction is unparalleled and his adventurous lifestyle and public image brought him admiration from later generations. Hemingway published seven novels throughout his career and was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction in 1953 and the Nobel Prize in literature in 1954. The Walden Book Shop unknown books
