Featured here is the title, Death in the Afternoon, by Ernest Hemingway. Published by Halcyon House. New York: Stated copyright 1932. 517 pages. Illustrated. Printed in the United States of America. A book about bullfighting. Includes a section on dates on which bullfights are held in Spain, France, Mexico, and Central and South America. Book excerpt – bibliographical note: . . . The present volume, Death in the Afternoon, is not intended to be either historical or exhaustive. It is intended as an introduction to the modern Spanish bullfight and attempts to explain that spectacle both emotionally and practically. It was written because there was no book which did this in Spanish or in English. The writer asks the indulgence of competent aficionados for his technical explanations. When a volume of controversy may be written on the execution of a single suerte one man’s arbitrary explanation is certain to be unacceptable to many. E.
