TV-spectators in all the world are surprised, impressed or shocked each year when they watch the
spectacle of bulls running through the streets of the town and hundreds of young men, usually
dressed in traditional white shirts and red belts, ahead of them. Taking this challenge frequently
ends in blood and tears. Hemingway was deeply impressed by Pamplona's Sanfermines, as by the
tradition of bullfighting in general, and reports on it in several of his books.
