This essay traces Hemingway's lifelong friendship with American artist Waldo Peirce (1884-1970). A veteran of the American Field Service Ambulance Corps who won the Croix de Guerre for conspicuous bravery at the World War I battle of Verdun, Peirce met Hemingway in Paris in 1927. The two men traveled together to the Fiesta of San Ferm�n in Pamplona and Peirce was a visitor to the Hemingway home in Key West, often recording their adventures in oil paintings and beautifully illustrated scrapbooks. While they saw each other infrequently in later years, they met one last time in Tucson, Arizona in 1959 and corresponded thereafter. The article is richly supported by material drawn from Peirce's letters, housed at the Library of Congress.
