About this ebook

Hemingway demonstrates his "flawless . . . mastery of narrative" in this classic autobiographical story of love in the midst of war (Edna O'Brien, The Guardian).

During the First World War, Ernest Hemingway volunteered to serve in Italy as an ambulance driver for the Red Cross. His harrowing experience served as the basis and inspiration for his novel A Farewell to Arms, one of the most celebrated works of American literature.

Through their epic journey, Hemingway vividly captures the horrors of combat, the healing power of love, and the haunting memories so many carry home with them.
