Roe | Wishing her all good luck from her friend Ernest Hemingway. Key West March 18, 1936." The recipient Daisey G. Roe was a Florida neighbor who had recently married up-and-coming politician (and future Jacksonville, Florida mayor) Caulie F. Whitehead. Authentic signed Hemingway material is becoming scarce on the market. Housed in a custom green quarter-leather slipcase with chemise. After publishing Winner Take Nothing in 1933, "Hemingway went to Africa to shoot the bounding kudu and to reply to his critics. The result is Green Hills of Africa... It is the most literary hunting trip on record" (New York Times). Here Hemingway "attempted to write an absolutely true book to see whether the shape of a country and the pattern of a month's action can, if truly presented, compete with a work of the imagination." It stands as one of his most memorable books set in the continent and, along with The Snows of Kilimanjaro, helped to establish his reputation as a safari-hunter and outdoorsman.
