I think Mailer was spot on about this book, "It is one of the best books on Hemingway that I have read, and it has material to be found nowhere else on Ernest, Mary, and Greg Hemingway." ~Norman Mailer
The author, Valerie Hemingway (Valerie Danby-Smith), was not related to Ernest Hemingway when first working for him and Mary as a personal secretary and later married his son Gregory.
