The Library of David Lloyd, Part IHEMINGWAY, ERNEST. 1899-1961.
Voyage to Victory: An Eye-witness Report of the Battle for a Normandy Beachhead. New York: Collier's - The National Weekly, 1944. 8vo, publisher's wire-stapled mottled grey wrappers; original yellow dust jacket in black, red, and white; cloth folding case and morocco slipcase. FIRST EDITION, FINE CONDITION. Hemingway's first-hand account of the D-Day landing at Omaha Beach. As Hemingway notes in the prologue: "Real war is never like paper war, nor do accounts of it read much like the way it looks. But if you want to know how it was in an LCV(P) on D-Day when we took Fox Green beach and Easy Red Beach on the sixth of June, 1944, then this is as near as I can come to it." VERY RARE according to ABPC; only one other copy sold at auction in the past 45 years. Hanneman A21.
