Three Stories and Ten Poems

by Ernest Miller Hemingway

Blurb

Three Stories and Ten Poems was the first short story collection by Ernest Hemingway; it was also his first published work. The collection was privately published in a run of 300 copies by Robert McAlmon's "Contact Publishing" in Paris, in 1923.
The three stories are:
"Up in Michigan"
"Out of Season"
"My Old Man"
The ten poems are:
"Mitraigliatrice"
"Oklahoma"
"Oily Weather"
"Roosevelt"
"Captives"
"Champs d'Honneur"
"Riparto d'Assalto"
"Montparnasse"
"Along With Youth"
"Chapter Heading"
In "My Old Man," Hemingway used jockey Tod Sloan as a basis for the puzzled boy trying to identify the source of his father's shame, and the father who cannot divulge it.
