Condition Report: Very Good. The volume remains tightly bound and completely square, indicating careful previous handling and shelving with no significant rubbing or wear to the underlying cloth boards. The text block is pleasingly crisp, with only mild dust-spotting and faint age-toning to the top edge, while the internal pages remain exceptionally bright and entirely free of foxing, creases, or deleterious marginalia. The original, unclipped dust jacket retains its aesthetic appeal and structural integrity, though it displays light age-toning to the spine panel and extremities, alongside a small, closed tear and minor associated creasing at the top edge of the rear panel. Overall, a highly presentable and robust copy of this essential reference work.

Catalogue Note: This first edition remains a cornerstone reference work for any serious collector, bookseller, or scholar of Ernest Hemingway, offering an exhaustive bibliographical record of his published output up to the late 1960s. The volume was immediately lauded for its meticulous detail and remained the undisputed standard for Hemingway bibliography for decades.

The present copy retains its original dust jacket featuring a distinctive, minimalist motif on the front panel and a contemporary advertisement for David Dow Harvey’s bibliography of Ford Madox Ford on the rear.

Finding examples that remain tight, internally pristine, and complete with their original wrappers in such solid condition is becoming increasingly uncommon, as many were heavily used as working library reference copies over the decades.

Audre Hanneman’s Ernest Hemingway: A Comprehensive Bibliography stands as a monumental achievement in literary scholarship, systematically cataloguing the sprawling output of one of the twentieth century’s most influential and widely read authors. From his earliest newspaper dispatches and obscure periodical contributions to the iconic, generation-defining novels, Hanneman traces the intricate publishing history of Hemingway's oeuvre with unparalleled precision and dedication. This indispensable guide not only charts the physical evolution of his books but also illuminates the global reach and enduring legacy of his literary career, making it an essential companion for collectors, academics, and devoted readers alike.

Book Condition Guide

We stock thousands of books in a wide range of conditions. To make things clear and to help you know exactly what to expect, Please refer to these condition categories to understand the condition of the book you will receive.

Condition	Description
New	A brand-new, unread and professionally handled book. Carefully preserved from publication to purchase, these books are offered in the best attainable condition. This grade applies to recently published titles that have not entered long-term storage.
As New	The book is in pristine, original condition as if just published. No signs of use or handling. The dust jacket (if present) is equally flawless. This grade applies to any book that has remained untouched in storage for years.
Fine	The book is close to As New. It remains bright and attractive, but could show minor imperfections to the boards and/or dust jacket (if present). Its pages are typically clean and unmarked.
Near Fine	The book has a number of small flaws, i.e. slight rubbing to the edges, or tiny chips or creases to the dust jacket (if present). Its pages may have faint marks, or creases that are barely perceptible — nothing that detracts from their overall condition.
Very Good	The book maintains its structural integrity, and has no major flaws such as tears to its binding or pages. It may, however, show signs of careful use, handling, or storage — small marks and creases, light foxing. Its dust jacket (if present) remains fully intact, but small tears may be present.
Good	A book that remains intact and readable with complete text pages, but shows moderate signs of wear and use to both the book and dust jacket (if present). It may have noticeable creases, nicks, or stains, and the spine likely shows fading, bumping, and rubbing. There could be writing, underlining, and other marks on some pages, though the majority will be clean and tidy.
Fair	A book with significant wear or damage. The text pages will be complete, but there may be heavy underlining, highlighting and staining throughout, and the book’s endpapers, half-title, and copyright pages could be damaged or missing. The binding could be loose, and the dust jacket (if present) may have notable scuffs or tears. These copies are usually of interest for content, signature(s) or scarcity.
Poor	A heavily worn book whose value lies in its complete and legible text. A poor book will have substantial defects — loose joints or hinges, detached covers, loose and/or missing pages, and could be heavily soiled. A poor book is also known as a reading copy, and although compromised, can hold historical or bibliographic significance.
