Under the Red, White, and Blue was F. Scott Fitzgerald's final title for the novel we all know as, The Great Gatsby. This particular edition aims to achieve Fitzgerald's last known wishes for the novel, if such a thing exists.
This book contains the entire novel. The emendations in this edition are mostly inconsequential to the overall scope of the novel. The updates include minor corrections (e.g., irises instead of retinas in descrbing the eyes of Doctor T.J. Eckleburg) and style choices closer to Fitzgerald's holograph draft (e.g., living room instead of living-room).
The Introduction discusses Fitzgerald's struggle with the title as well as the influence of the original cover art and its artist, Francis Cugat.
