Annotation
Recounts the 1929 Boston suppression of Scribner’s serialized version of A Farewell to Arms. Outlines Maxwell Perkins’s reticence to publish the book due to language and content issues. Donaldson concludes that concessions made at the editor’s request altered the final version of the book, creating a “somewhat different novel.”
