Ernest was active in sports and his father taught him to love out – door life so he was an exelent hunter and fisherman. Ernest attended the public school in Oak Park and published his earliest stories and poems in his high school newspaper. His parents wanted him to be a doctor , but after graduation from highschool , he began his writing career as sport reporter for the Kansas Citystar.

One of the best parts of the novel is Robert Jordan´s monologue about what a beautiful place the world is and how much it is worth fighting for.

Until this time the fish has been his enemy, but than it´s a treasure. When the man sails back to the coast, he is attacked by sharks and they reduce the marlin into a skeleton.
