You know what Abbott is? Abbott is like Hemingway. My God he reminds me of Hemingway:

-Lowell/Oak Park.
-Both left for a war.
-Both cultivated the manliest of personae.
-Both had an effeminate streak.
-Both showed unquestioned bravery in danger.
-Both jealous of others-writers or officers. Both disparaged others.
-Both sought danger.
-Both quality and prolific writers.
-Both enjoyed living in the wild--with all the comforts that money could provide.
-Both were (Hemingway) or desperately wanted to be (Abbott) ladies men.
