History of War
This Novel is heavily based on World War 1 or the First World War and I found this educational video to share with you. This video explains the history of the war, who took part in the war, the time length of the war, and many more concepts.
Author Background
Ernest Hemingway is the well renowned author of this book A Farewell to Arms. He was known as a classic “American” because of his love for hunting, fishing, and the outdoors. His style of writing is very brief and straight forward. One interesting fact I found from this video was that after high school Hemingway opted to go to Kansas City to work on the newspaper instead of going to college. Some people belief this influenced his brief and straight forward style of writing.
