Furthermore,Hemingway’s personal life was full of adventure. A Farewell to Arms was inspired by Hemingway’s experience inItaly as an ambulance driver in World War I. After marrying the first of his four wives, Hemingway moved to Parisand published his first novel in 1926. He later worked as a journalist in the Spanish Civil War. This experience formedthe basis for another novel.
