"As the first son of an aspiring American writer in Paris during the twenties, Jack Hemingway had an unusual childhood. Young Jack, nicknamed Bumby, observed his father, Ernest, struggling with his muse in their rooms over a sawmill on Rue Notre Dame des Champs (their humble apartment included a piano for Jack's mother, Hadley, whose music Ernest encouraged). Gertrude Stein was his godmother; he watched his father playing tennis on the public courts of Paris with Ezra Pound. Accompanying his parents, he experienced the café life of the time, when one might meet Picasso or James Joyce at the workingman's bar Closerie de Lilas. Strolling along the banks of the Seine with Papa, the small boy first witnessed the unique fishermen of Paris - and thus began his lifelong passion for fishing." - from blurb on front flap.
