A Farewell to Arms Extraordinary Association copy, signed and inscribed by the author on the half-title page: " For Henry Pfeiffer, yours very truly, Ernest Hemingway, Piggot-December 31-1932". Henry Pfeiffer was a philanthropist and uncle to Hemingway's second wife Pauline Pfeiffer. Paul Pfeiffer, Pauline's father, and uncles Henry and G. Paul left the company and moved his family to Piggott, Arkansas to make a life for his family. This copy was signed and inscribed in Piggott, the family's estate, to his wife's uncle Henry.

Ernest's marriage to Pauline and the influence of the Pfeiffer family was incredibly important to Hemingway's life, career, and literary endeavors. During the course of their thirteen year marriage, Hemingway started and/or finished "A Farewell to Arms", "Winner Take Nothing", "Green Hills of Africa", "To Have and Have Not", "The Fifth Column and the First Forty-Nine Stories", and "For Whom the Bells Tolls". Pauline's father Paul even renovated the family barn in Piggott into a workspace for Hemingway. This book, A Farewell to Arms was dedicated to G. "A Farewell to Arms" also has a Pfeiffer connection with the dramatic ending that was based on his wife Pauline's difficult birth to their son Patrick. To say that the Pfeiffer family had a major impact on Hemingway's career would be an understatement. This is an outstanding association copy to a member of the family that paved the way for some of Hemingway's most famous works and helped him to become one of America's greatest writers.
