For Whom The Bell Tolls, Ernest Hemingway

-
"For Whom The Bell Tolls," Ernest Hemingway, originally published in 1940. We are connected in our humanity, in our individuality, in peace and at war, and our loss to the world is tragic, perhaps especially at war. "Any man's death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind; And therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee." - Donne.

Hardcover with dust jacket. First Edition Library (FEL, not Easton) with card insert, FEL on inner back dust jacket. Condition: Very Fine (VF). Small impression at slipcase corner by Hemingway's shoulder (shown). FEL books are replicas of original first editions / first printings using identical size, paper and printing, each housed in a neat, custom slipcase. A beautiful volume.
