The extraordinary untold story of Ernest Hemingway\'s dangerous secret life in espionageA NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - A finalist for the William E. Colby Military Writers\' AwardIMPORTANT (Wall Street Journal) - FASCINATING (New York Review of Books) - CAPTIVATING (Missourian)A riveting 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, Writer, Sailor, Soldier, Spy reveals for the first time Ernest Hemingway\'s secret adventures in espionage and intelligence during the 1930s and 1940s (including his role as a Soviet agent code-named Argo), a hidden chapter that fueled both his art and his undoing.

Reynolds equally explores Hemingway\'s participation in various roles as an agent for the United States government, including hunting Nazi submarines with ONI-supplied munitions in the Caribbean on his boat, Pilar; his command of an informant ring in Cuba called the Crook Factory that reported to the American emb
