Do you have a favorite Hemingway biography?

I'm almost finished the Carlos Baker one. I think it was the first and most people look on it as one of the better ones. The A.E. Hotchner one is sometimes said to suffer from hero worship a bit. I've read that there are some new ones that are good but haven't checked them out yet.

I read AE Hotchner’s 20 years ago and it was ok. They all suffer from their own slant though. I read a fun one this year called Hemingway in Idaho by Tilley Arnold. Rare paperback by the people who were at Sun Valley Idaho when EH went up there as a promotional gig. There is one on EBay now for $49.

Try Ernest Hemingway in the Yellowstone High Country by Chris Warren. Spent a night in Cooke City MT during a Yellowstone trip, visited Miners Saloon and the bartender had a copy behind the bar. Started talking to him, turned out it was Chris, the author, who grew up in Cooke City and was familiar with folks who hung out with Hemingway. I had to buy the book from him (autographed, of course); excellent read and I’m not really a Hemingway fan.
