First American illustrated edition. Inscribed by Ernest Hemingway on the half-title to acquaintances in Ketchum, Idaho, that he met through his pal Lloyd "Pappy" Arnold: "To Priscilla and Vince, best always from their friend, Ernest Hemingway. Ketchum, 1961." Illustrated with drawings by C.F. Tunnicliffe and Raymond Sheppard. A very attractive edition (the top edges are gilt) of this key title written in Cuba in 1951 and published in 1952. The story centers upon Santiago, an aging Cuban fisherman who struggles with a giant marlin far out in the Gulf Stream. This book led to numerous accolades for Hemingway, including the 1953 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction. He also earned the Award of Merit Medal for the Novel from the American Academy of Letters that same year. Most prestigiously, the Nobel Prize in Literature came in 1954, "for his mastery of the art of narrative, most recently demonstrated in The Old Man and theSea, and for the influence that he has exerted on contemporary style."
