About this ebook
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:
#1 Hemingway was a resident of Key West in 1935. He had completed a manuscript of The Green Hills of Africa, which he considered his best writing since Death in the Afternoon. He was excited to see if the public’s approval matched his own.
#2 In the 1920s, Hurricane Hernan was approaching Florida. It was a minimal hurricane with winds hovering in the 75 mph range. The newspapers reported the location of the storm as just east of Long Island, in the Bahamas, some 400 miles east of Key West.
#3 Hemingway spent the rest of Sunday evening and the following morning moving lawn furniture and shooing the ever-present horde of cats inside his house. The barometer was falling precipitously, and the streets all over the town resounded with the crack of hammers driving nails into shutters.
#4 The full force of the storm had already begun to sweep ashore when it hit Matecumbe Key, eighty miles to the north and east of Key West. The residents there were unprepared for such a storm, and panic ensued when the winds began to blow.
