Presented by Patrick and Se�n Hemingway, this augmented edition of Ernest Hemingway�s classic novel of love during wartime features early drafts and, for the first time, all of the author�s alternate endings. Written when Hemingway was thirty years old and lauded as the best American novel to emerge from World War I, A Farewell to Arms is the unforgettable story of an American ambulance driver on the Italian front and his passion for a beautiful English nurse. Set against the looming horrors of the battlefield�weary, demoralized men marching in the rain during the German attack on Caparetto; the profound struggle between loyalty and desertion�this gripping, semi-autobiographical work captures the harsh realities of war and the pain of lovers caught in its inexorable sweep. Ernest Hemingway famously said that he rewrote the ending to A Farewell to Arms thirty-nine times to get the words right. This edition collects all the alternate endings together for the first time, offering new insight into Hemingway�s craft and creative process, and the evolution of one of the greatest novels of the twentieth century. Featuring a previously published Introduction by the author, a personal Foreword by the author�s son, Patrick Hemingway, and a new Introduction by his grandson, Se�n Hemingway, this edition of A Farewell to Arms is truly a celebration.
