"Gellhorn is incapable of writing a dull sentence."
-The Times (London)

"Martha Gellhorn was so fearless in a male way, and yet utterly capable of making men melt," writes New Yorker literary editor Bill Buford. As a journalist, Gellhorn covered every military conflict from the Spanish Civil War to Vietnam and Nicaragua. She also bewitched Eleanor Roosevelt's secret love and enraptured Ernest Hemingway with her courage as they dodged shell fire together.

Hemingway is, of course, the unnamed "other" in the title of this tart memoir, first published in 1979, in which Gellhorn describes her globe-spanning adventures, both accompanied and alone. With razor-sharp humor and exceptional insight into place and character, she tells of a tense week spent among dissidents in Moscow; long days whiled away in a disused water tank with hippies clustered at Eilat on the Red Sea; and her journeys by sampan and horse to the interior of China during the Sino-Japanese War.

Now including a foreward by Bill Buford and photographs of Gellhorn with Hemingway, Dorothy Parker, Madame Chiang Kai-shek, Gary Cooper, and others, this new edition rediscovers the voice of an extraordinary woman and brings back into print an irresistibly entertaining classic.]]> 162626 3.85 143 43 1978 456103 0871132117 9780871132116 9 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1174927619m/456103.jpg http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1174927619s/456103.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/456103.The_Face_of_War 3.89 28 162626 3.85 143 43 1986 279421 0803270518 9780803270510 3 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1173377097m/279421.jpg http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1173377097s/279421.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/279421.Point_of_No_Return 3.50 12 162626 3.85 143 43 1989 301183 0871132125 9780871132123 3 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1173536962m/301183.jpg http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1173536962s/301183.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/301183.The_View_from_the_Ground 3.57 7 162626 3.85 143 43 1989 301184 0679743693 9780679743699 1 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1173536962m/301184.jpg http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1173536962s/301184.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/301184.The_Novellas_of_Martha_Gellhorn 3.67 6 162626 3.85 143 43 1993 1035597 0907871011 9780907871019 1 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1180400320m/1035597.jpg http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1180400320s/1035597.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1035597.The_Weather_in_Africa_Three_Novellas 4.00 6 162626 3.85 143 43 1979 1254401 0140161406 9780140161403 1 http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-111x148.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-60x80.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1254401.A_Stricken_Field 4.00 4 162626 3.85 143 43 1986 731111 0836936604 9780836936605 1 http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-111x148.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-60x80.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/731111.The_Honeyed_Peace_Stories 3.00 2 162626 3.85 143 43 1953 2067353 0 http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-111x148.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-60x80.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2067353.His_Own_Man 5.00 1 162626 3.85 143 43 1961 3157278 0015727551 0 http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-111x148.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-60x80.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3157278.What_Mad_Pursuit_A_Novel 5.00 1 162626 3.85 143 43 1934 6672565 0330323733 9780330323734 0 http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-111x148.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-60x80.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6672565-liana 4.00 1 162626 3.85 143 43 1993 1035536 0140161716 9780140161717 0 http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-111x148.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-60x80.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1035536.Liana 2.00 1 162626 3.85 143 43 1987 6992520 1436264391 9781436264396 0 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1255702280m/6992520.jpg http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1255702280s/6992520.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6992520-travels-with-myself-and-another 0.0 0 162626 3.85 143 43 2001 2077561 0 http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-111x148.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-60x80.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2077561.The_Heart_of_Another 0.0 0 162626 3.85 143 43 1941 5582201 1856190919 9781856190916 0 http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-111x148.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-60x80.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5582201.The_Short_Novels 0.0 0 162626 3.85 143 43 1991 6632891 9041701885 0 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1248175347m/6632891.jpg http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1248175347s/6632891.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6632891-echte-vrouwen-reizen-anders 0.0 0 162626 3.85 143 43 30013 3.77 1286 169 617033 3.82 145 26 1999 4671345 3908777267 9783908777267 0 http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-111x148.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-60x80.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/4671345.Paare_Ein_Reigen_in_vier_Novellen 0.0 0 162626 3.85 143 43 2007 7279573 0803226772 9780803226777 0 http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-111x148.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-60x80.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/7279573-love-goes-to-press 0.0 0 Love Goes to Press opened in London in 1946 and on Broadway in 1947.
