Rezensionen

I found Mary Claire Kendall's book riveting and full of fresh information. She has done a wonderful job of sifting through the mountain of material on Ernest Hemingway and is wisely indebted to the research of the late H. R. Stoneback, "the foremost scholar on Hemingway's Catholicism and himself a convert."
