 | 3. | Montgomery, Constance Cappel. (Ernest Hemingway.) HEMINGWAY IN MICHIGAN. Fleet, New York, 1966, first edition. 224 pp, large 8vo ( 9 3/16" H), hard cover in dust jacket. B&w plates, map. "This book offers new insight into Ernest Hemingway's life as a boy and young man, and includes three previously unavailable Hemingway stories written before he reached the age of twenty-one. Included are new Hemingway photographs, and Constance Cappel Montgomery's own photographs of locations where Hemingway spent much time in Michigan, the setting of many of his early stories. Mrs. Montgomery has interviewed Hadley Richardson Mowrer, Hemingway's first wife, and had the thoughtful cooperation of his widow, Mary Hemingway. She has interviewed other members of his family, his friends in Michigan, and found and read previously undiscovered letters to him and from him, which guided her in offering fresh views on his early attitudes towards girls and women. During many visits to Michigan, she carefully traced the locations and characters in Hemingway's Michigan stories, and compared real places and real people with the people and places in his stories. She sketches in the history of the area he used as settings for his Michigan stories, and established the chronology of his family's visits and life in Michigan, and his own adventures there...."

 | 4. | Phillips, Gene D. Introduction by Carlos Baker. (Ernest Hemingway.) HEMINGWAY AND FILM. Frederick Unger, New York, 1980. 192 pp, 8 3/16" H, soft cover. ISBN 0804466440 B&w photographs. "Ernest Hemingway's fiction presents the film adaptor with special problems....In his penetrating study, Gene Phillips pinpoints the difficulty in turning Hemingway's subtle fiction into movie material. Some of Hollywood's finest talents have responded to the challenge. Beginning in 1932 with Frank Borazge's 'A Farewell to Arms', starring Gary Cooper and Helen Hayes, several directors have tried their hand - Sam Wood ('For Whom the Bell Tolls', 1943), Howard Hawks ('To Have and to Have Not', 1944), and Henry King ('The Sun Also Rises', 1957). They drew on the not inconsiderable skills of such screenwriters as Dudley Nichols, William Faulkner, and John Houston. The results met with varying success. In exploring the reasons why, the book draws added validity from interviews with many of the directors and cinematographers involved in the persistent attempts to translate Hemingway into cinematic images. Carlos Baker's moving essay, 'Hemingway's Last Appeal', sets the tone for this thematic investigation. For the interested reader or film student, the book also includes a filmography, selected bibliography, and photographs."

Penguin, (Harmondsworth, Middlesex, 1977). 437 pp, mass market paperback. A collection of 21 sea stories. ''Culled from Captains' logs, eyewitness reports and classic accounts, here are stories that breathe with the very life of the sea - its ships and sailors, rogues and heroes, and the fu ry and beauty of the ocean. Some of the epic and bewildering true stories of the sea are contrasted with examples of superb fiction. With contributions ranging from Joseph Conrad to Ernest Hemingway, Jack London to C.S. Forester, (this book) makes up a compelling and representative anthology that will introduce readers to some of the great writers, and great stories, in our literature.''

 | 6. | Stephens, Robert O. (Ernest Hemingway.) HEMINGWAY'S NONFICTION: THE PUBLIC VOICE. University of North Carolina Press, Chapel Hill, 1968. 391 pp, 8vo (8 1/4" H), hard cover in dust jacket. "This is a ground-breaking study of an important and critically neglected body of writing of one of America's twentieth-century literary masters. In spite of the mounting number of books and articles examining the art of Hemingway's fiction and the impact of his life and art on twentieth-century culture, remarkably little attention has been paid to the nonfictional pieces that he wrote throughout his career. This study explores his newspaper and magazine journalism, his three books of factual prose, his introductions and prefaces to books by others, his program notes on painting and sculpture exhibitions, and his statements in self-edited interviews. In doing so, it throws a new, oblique light on what has usually been regarded as his major work - his short stories and novels...."
