Letter, 1952 May 1, Finca Vigia, San Francisco de Paula, to Mr. Paulson.

Paulson was an undergraduate student at Yale and about to go into military service when he wrote Hemingway and asked him to inscribe a copy of Across the river and into the trees. Hemingway goes on to note, "The Colonel I invented from what I know of three very intelligent professional soldiers" and goes on to discuss a would be interviewer who had left his notebook behind and the Cape edition. Hemingway goes on to say that if Paulson sends him his address he will have Scribner's send him a copy of the book (The old man and the sea) when it comes out and sends his regards to Mr. [Austin] Warren, Paulson's professor. Paulson went on to complete his PhD at Yale and became an expert on 18th century British art and culture.
