"Although Hemingway's world-wide fame as a writer was based on his works of fiction - the short stories and novels through which he created a virtually new voice for contemporary literature - it is important to remember that for over four decades he also carried on a vigorous career in journalism. He himself was sometimes included to minimize the value of the material that he wrote as a reporter, and yet the professional training and diversified experiences that he received writing for newspapers and magazines were impoortant not only for the subject matter of his imaginative writing but also for the special characteristics of the literary style he evolved. This career began with his early apprenticeship as a cub reporter for The Kansas City Star in which he learned valuable lessons of objectivity, simplicity and brevity under the tutelage of the famous newspaper editor C.G. Wellington. In the early twenties his desire to become a writer was further advanced by the lively imaginative articles he wrote for The Toronto Star. It was as a correspondent for that paper that he was able to go to Paris, where out of the craft of creative journalism he developed the unique methods of his own literary art. In later years this journalistic career was never broken: in Key West in the thirties with his wry, inimitable articles and letters for Esquire; in the first-hand reporting of the Spanish Civil War; in the penetrating polotical and military analyses of the Sino-Japanese war in his articles for PM in 1941; in his later coverage of World War II in Europe; and finally in the mellow ironical chronicle of his last African adventures. Few correspondents have produced a more impressive body of first-rate work. In this book, prepared with the guidance of an authority in the field of journalism, the reader is given a generous and representative collection of Hemingway's best work as a reporter. Read in the light of his accomplishments as a writer of fiction, the collection as a whole is a source of unusual interest. For we are shown here the raw material, so to speak, out of which a highly original genius formed many of his literary creations." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps.
