The novelist Ernest Hemingway wrote 47 possible endings to his book A Farewell to Arms. Eight of them are part of a new show at the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library in Boston, Massachusetts. The ending that Hemingway finally chose is also there to see. Patrick Hemingway is the writer’s only surviving child. This week, he visited the library show. He said the exhibit shows how hard his father worked. He said, "He always felt responsible for being where the action was. A lot of writers just retire to their rooms and describe their childhood. He didn't do that. The Kennedy Library holds the world's largest collection of documents, photographs and personal belongings of the famous writer. Library Curator Stacey Bredhoff describes the Hemingway collection as one of the library's greatest treasures. The show is called Ernest Hemingway: Between Two Wars. It includes material rarely shown in public.
