Popular vacation destination offers more than meets the eye in
'Wild Key West.' Every year, thousands of tourists flock to Key
West and the Florida Keys for the pristine beaches and exciting
nightlife, but authors Donna Robinson and Ben Roberts know that not
everything is perfect in paradise. Their new book, "Wild Key West"
(published by Lulu), shares some of Key West's dark past filled
with seedy characters, gruesome murders and dirty dealings that
will surely entice any crime or history fan. The book includes
stories of murder and arson as race tensions rose in the area and
the rum running and bootlegging businesses took off. During the
1920's, the city was on the brink of economic collapse. Many
unemployed people with boats took to smuggling liquor to feed their
families. More than just stories, "Wild Key West" features civil
records, archived newspaper articles and interviews with Key West
natives who can trace their families back several generations.
