"Scribner's Magazine" Vol. 85, No. 5 - Vol. 86, No. 4 (May - Oct., 1929). First appearance of Ernest Hemingway's "A Farewell to Arms."

Ernest Hemingway’s first bestseller and arguably one of the best novels written about World War I, “A Farewell to Arms,” was first serialized in the May – October 1929 issues of Scribner’s Magazine. It was published in book form in September of that year. It is the story of Lieutenant Frederic Henry, an American serving as an ambulance driver in the Italian army, and his love affair with an English nurse named Catherine Barkley. The novel is semi-autobiographical, based on Hemingway’s own experiences serving in the Italian campaigns during World War I.
