Review # 1 was written on 2014-09-23 00:00:00 Damon Anker I like reading about Hemingway more than I like reading Hemingway. And the more I read about him, the less I like him as a person. He was a bully, a womanizer, a poor sport. But he could write, and he wrote in Key West. And I really like Key West. My wife and I honeymooned there. Reading this book was fun because I got to revisit old stomping grounds. I would recommend this book to anyone who wants a thumb-nail sketch of Papa in Key West. And it gives a decent walking tour of the city. Whether you like Hemingway or not, the truth is that Papa could live without Key West, but Key West could not live without Papa. His spirit permeates the island.

Review # 2 was written on 2015-12-22 00:00:00 Rob Christy This book was terrific! Even though I'd been to Key West before and seen many of the Hemingway haunts, this book took me back and shared new insights. I enjoyed the back stories about the author and his crew. I enjoyed the suggested walking tour. In short, because of the perspective presented in the book by Mr. McIver, I'll be returning to Key West sooner than later, even though I've been there more than a few times before.
