I've actually only read his short stories!. My favorites are "Cat in the Rain" and "Snows of Kilimanjaro"!. His most popular book to start with would probably be "The Old Man and the Sea!."

I live in Idaho, so Hemingway is a big local hero around here!. Very cool that your grandfather met such a legend!
