'he wrote' is the definition.
The answer is a person as well as being a singular noun. This is suggested by the definition.

'eagles in the dynasty style' is the wordplay.
'eagles in' becomes 'ernes' (erne is a kind of eagle. I am not sure about the 'in' bit.).
'dynasty' becomes 'ming' (Chinese dynasty).
'style' becomes 'way' (synonyms).
'ernes'+'the'+'ming'+'way'='ERNEST HEMINGWAY'

'of' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?
