Overview

Ernest Hemingway, the Nobel Prize winning author, was known as much for his prose as for his travels to exotic locales, his gusto and charm created excitement wherever he went. In Ernest's Way, we follow Cristen around the globe to the places he lived, wrote, fought, drank, fished, ran with the bulls and held court with T.S. Elliot, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Pablo Picasso, Gertrude Stein and many other influential writers, artists and intellectuals of the 20th century. Written with intimate insights, history and essential logistical information, Ernest's Way is the first comprehensive guide to the legendary author’s adventures, showcasing for readers the places that shaped his life and writing. With fresh and lively prose, Cristen bings these places to life for the modern reader, allowing all who admire Hemingway's life and literature to enjoy his legacy in a new and vibrant way.
