The Best Friend I Ever Had by David Nuffer is a collection of anecdotes from friends of Ernest Hemingway. The author who admits to an obsession with Hemingway travels from Cuba to the inland northwest to talk to those who knew Hemingway and sites of interest. Nuffer Spends much of the book debunking various academics theories about Hemingway. I'm not up on Hemingway controversies so I can't really speak to those but, they were still interesting. There's also quite a bit on his suicide.
