An American dynamiter joins guerrilla fighters in the Spanish Civil War to blow up a bridge, falls in love with a young survivor of the fascists in his last few days, and stays behind wounded to cover the others' retreat.

The world is a fine place and worth the fighting for and I hate very much to leave it.
For Whom the Bell Tolls, Ernest Hemingway
