Spanning the years 1920 to 1956, this priceless collection shows Hemingway's work as a reporter, from correspondent for the Toronto Star to contributor to Esquire, Collier's, and Look. As fledgling reporter, war correspondent, and seasoned journalist, Hemingway provides access to a range of experiences, including vivid eyewitness accounts of the Spanish Civil War and World War II. By-Line: Ernest Hemingway offers a glimpse into the world behind the popular fiction of one of America's greatest writers.

ERNEST HEMINGWAY did more to change the style of English prose than any other writer in the twentieth century, and for his efforts he was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1954. Hemingway wrotein short, declarative sentences and was known for his tough, terse prose. Publication of,The Sun Also Rises and A Farewell to Arms immediately established Ernest Hemingway as one of the greatest literary lights of the twentieth century. As part of the expatriate community in 1920s Paris, the former journalist and World War I ambulance driver began a career that led to international fame.Hemingway was an aficionado of bullfighting and big-game hunting, and his main protagonists were always men and women of courage and conviction, who suffered unseen scars, both physical and emotional. He covered the Spanish Civil War, portraying it in fiction in For Whom the Bell Tolls, what some consider his true literary masterpiece, and he also covered World War II. His classic novella The OIdMan and the Sea won the Pulitzer Prize in 1953. He died in 1961. WILLIAM WHITE, an authority on Hemingway's career as a journalist, is a former Professor of Journalism at Wayne State University, Michigan.A distinguished bibliographer of American authors, he has served as editor of the Walt Whitman Reviewand as editorial adviser to the HemingwayReview, and is the author of A Guide to Ernest Hemingway (1969).
