Robert McAlmon. First edition, first printing. Softcover. 

A Hasty Bunch by Robert McAlmon is a must read. Robert McAlmon was a leading figure in the Paris expatriate literary scene in the 1920s. He was the publisher of the influential avant-garde Contact Editions, and had a reputation of being perhaps the most significant of the young American short-story writers of the time. His life typifies what has been described as "the lost generation" (Amazon). 

He met Ernest Hemingway and the two became friends even though the relationship had its stormy times. They travelled to Spain with Bill Bird for Ernest's first exposure to bullfighting.
