After a stint as an ambulance driver at the Italian front, Hemingway came home to America in 1919, only to return to the battlefield  this time as a reporter on the Greco-Turkish war  in 1922. Resigning from journalism to focus on his writing instead, he moved to Paris where he renewed his earlier friendship with fellow American expatriates such as Ezra Pound and Gertrude Stein. Through the years, Hemingway travelled widely and wrote avidly, becoming an internationally recognized literary master of his craft. He received the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1954, following the publication of \u003ci\u003eThe Old Man and the Sea\u003c\/i\u003e. He died in 1961.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRemarkable, startling, disquieting * Spectator *\u003cbr\u003eSome of the finest and most restrained writing that this generation has produced * New York World *\u003cbr\u003eHemingway captures atmosphere by reticence and breathes life into his characters by pages left unsaid...
