Good biography written by a personal friend of Hemingway's.

"The chronology of Papa Hemingway is the fourteen years before Hemingway's death, but much of the narrative flashes back to Hemingway's reminiscences of his childhood, to the Paris literary group in the Twenties, to his early years as a writer, and the people and circumstances that were the reality behind his fiction. The past is interwoven with the present, and from this emerges an extraordinary picture of Hemingway and his relationships with other writers, his friends and his wives."
