When Michael Palin was researching for his novel Hemingways Chair his interest was stimulated by Hemingways appetite for travel and Papas evocations of the places he knew. Hemingway remains a compelling figure, and Palins goal was to revisit Hemingways world. This book includes the American West (wide lawns and narrow minds), Idaho, Michigan (fly fishing, hunting), Europe in the First World (where Hemingway was wounded serving in the Ambulance Brigade), Cuba (where Hemingway wrote For Whom the Bell Tolls), Paris in the Roaring Twenties and Spain during the Spanish Civil War, Sun Valley and Key West where the Hemingway lookalike competition is an annual event.
