520    $a An international cloak-and-dagger epic ranging from the Spanish Civil War to the liberation of Western Europe, wartime China, the Red Scare of Cold War America, and the Cuban Revolution, here is the stunning untold story of Ernest Hemingway's dangerous secret life in espionage and intelligence - including his role as a Soviet agent codenamed "Argo" - that fueled his art and undoing. Nicholas Reynolds, the former historian of the CIA Museum, illuminates Hemingway's immersion in the life-and-death world of the revolutionary left, and equally explores Hemingway's participation in various roles as an agent for the United States government, including hunting Nazi submarines with U.S.-supplied munitions in the Caribbean; his on-the-ground role in Europe, where he helped OSS gain key tactical intelligence for the liberation of Paris and fought alongside the U.S. infantry in the bloody endgame of World War II, and more. Revealing how Hemingway's secret adventures played a role in some of his greatest works, SRITER, SAILOR, SOLDIER, SPY is an essential contribution to our understanding of the life, work, and fate of one of America's most legendary authors.
