Writing from Toronto, Chicago, Paris, and throughout Europe, he covered politics, sports, war, travel, life styles, human relations, etc. - areas of interest throughout his life. Presented here are all one hundred seventy-two pieces that were published in the Star, including those under pseudonyms. Hemingway readers will discern his unique voice already present in many of these pieces, particularly his knack for dialogue. It is fascinating to discover his early accounts of events and subjects that reprised in his later fiction. As William White points out in his introduction to this work, "Much of it, over sixty years later, can still be read both as a record of the early twenties and as evidence of how Ernest Hemingway learned the craft of writing." The youthful enthusiasm, wit, and skill with which these pieces were written guarantee that Dateline: Toronto will be read for pleasure, as excellent journalism, and for the insights it offers into his great works to follow. When Ernest Hemingway began to write for the Toronto Star, he was an unknown commodity. He had only been published in his Oak Park high school periodicals and the Kansas City Star as an anonymous cub reporter. By the time his last article was printed in the Canadian newpaper, he had published a few short stories and two small books in limited edition: Three Stories & Ten Poems (Paris, 1923) and In Our Time (Paris, 1924). However, his literary career had begun! Yet before this began, Hemingway's work with the Toronto Star Weekly and the Daily Star gave him an opportunity to write professionally. Still in his twenties, this offered world travel, especially to Europe while covering political, social, and military events. And, a few very important years, while he was still impressionable and developing, to flex his not-yet-literary muscles. From these years as a foreign correspondent, came the creative writer and author of some of the finest short stories and novels of the twentieth century! Thoroughly enjoyable eighteen-page detailed index. Printed in the United States of America. 478 pages. Insured post. Size: 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" Tall
