| Publisher Description: In 1924 F. Scott Fitzgerald told his editor Maxwell Perkins about a young American expatriate in Paris, an unknown writer with a brilliant future. When Perkins wrote to Ernest Hemingway several months later, he began a correspondence spanning more than two decades and charting the career of the most influential American author of this century. The letters collected here are the record of a remarkable professional alliance--an enduring friendship between editor and author--and of Hemingway's development as a writer. |
