Remembering Spain – Cary Nelson (Hardback / Hard Cover)

Hemingway’s Civil War Eulogy and the Veterans of the Abraham Lincoln Brigade One of only two known recordings of Ernest Hemingway’s voice, this tape features the famed author reading and commenting on his essay, ”On the American Dead in Spain.” The tape was made in 1947 in Havana to be played at a New York dinner observing the tenth anniversary of the Lincoln Battalion’s entry into the Spanish Civil War. In it, Hemingway also comments on recent history and tells how the recording was made. Essays by Cary Nelson and Milton Wolff are highlights of the accompanying booklet, which also represents the first publication of a 1953 letter in which Hemingway claimed that an enemy he made in 1940 planned to assassinate him in France. The booklet also includes reproductions of rare fliers distributed in response to For Whom the Bell Tolls.
