"No man is an Iland, intire of it selfe; every man is a peece of the Continent, a part of the maine; if a Clod bee washed away by the Sea, Europe is the lesse, as well as if a Promontorie were, as well as if a Mannor of thy friends or of thine owne were; any mans death diminishes me, because I am involved in Mankinde; And therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; It tolls for thee." - John Donne

High in the pine forests of the Spanish Sierra, a guerilla band prepares to blow up a vital bridge. Robert Jordan, a young American volunteer, has been sent to handle the dynamiting. There in the mountains, he finds the dangers and the intense comradeship of war. And there he discovers Maria a young women who has escaped from Franco's rebels. . .

For Whom the Bell Tolls is Hemingway's finest novel, a passionate evocation of the pride and the tragedy of the Civil War that tore Spain apart.

Industry Reviews

"One of the greatest novels which our troubled age will produce." - Observer

"The best fictional report on the Spanish Civil War that we possess." - Anthony Burgess

"The best book Hemingway has written." - New York Times

"For Whom the Bell Tolls is 1) a great Hemingway love story; 2) a tense story of adventure in war; 3) a grave and sombre tragedy of Spanish peasants fighting for their lives. But above all it is about death." - TIME

"This is good Hemingway. It has some of the tenderness of A Farewell to Arms and some of its amazing power to make one feel inside the picture of a nation at war, of the people experiencing war shorn of its glamour, of the emotions that the effects of war - rather than war itself - arouse." - Kirkus Reviews
