Why? The man had talent. Grain of salt I guess. Ken Burns is good but we have to take him with a bigger grain.
Orwells “Homage to Catolonia” was more memorable. I’ll have to go back and read For Whom again after 40 years. John McCain talked me into it.
Hemingway did volunteer as an ambulance driver with the Allies in World War One. By that standard, he is different from His Fraudulency Joe Biden (multiple student and marriage deferments during Vietnam), the odious Dick Cheney (same), and most neocons.
Yes, Burns is good. Perhaps his best work was the documentary The Old Negro Space Program.
