Six Tales of the Jazz Age and Other Stories

Born in 1896 in St.Paul, Minn., Scott Fitzgerald was educated at Princeton which he left in his senior year(1917) to join the army. At one of his army posts near Montgomery, Ala., he met Zelda Sayre, whom he subsequently married. His first novel, THIS SIDE OF PARADISE, was a great critical and financial success. The Fitzgeralds lived in Paris for several years in the midst of the ex-patriates of the Twenties. Upon their return to America, Fitzgerald completed TENDER IS THE NIGHT and was at work on the LAST TYCOON when he died, in Hollywood, in 1940.
