HEMINGWAY, Ernest, his copies]. Two works on aviation from Hemingway’s library, BOTH SIGNED BY HEMINGWAY , comprising: MACMILLAN, Captain Norman. The Air Cadet ’ s Handbook on How to Pilot and Airplane . London: George Allen & Unwin Ltd., 1942. 8°. Blue publisher’s boards; printed dust jacket. – DINGLE, Herbert. Mechanical Physics . London: Thomas Nelson and Sons Ltd, 1943. 8°. Original publisher’s cloth; original printed dust jacket. – Together, 2 works in 2 volumes, housed in a cloth folding case. In Hemingway’s “London Fights the Robots,” published in Collier ’ s Weekly on 19 August 1944, he provides a first-hand account of the Royal Air Force’s new plane developed to intercept pilot-less bombers, in which he notes: “You love a lot of things if you live around them, but there isn't any woman and there isn't any horse, nor any before nor any after, that is as lovely as a great airplane, and men who love them are faithful to them even though they leave them for others. A man has only one virginity to lose in fighters, and if it is a lovely plane he loses it to, there his heart will always be.
