Key Notes: A Collection of Folktales from the Florida Keys

by K.T. Dixon

K.T. Dixon spent months traveling the Florida Keys in search of tales that reflect the true essence of the islands. KEY NOTES is a collection of fun and entertaining short stories unearthed during those journeys.

From the northern Keys in Biscayne Bay to their southern tip in Key West, these tales bring to life the eccentric characters and bizarre events that shaped the colorful history of the island chain. Though some of the stories seem far-fetched, their authenticity is still there for you to explore today. That is if you have the spirit to venture into America's last true frontier.

If I didn’t live in the Keys, I wouldn’t have put faith in a single word of this book. But I do live here, and yeah… we’re weird.

There were definitely some fun stories. A great book for any Conch or visitor.

I always read books about the places I will be visiting and this is an entertaining book of tales about the Keys. I read it on the plane on my way to Florida, and shared it with my family when I got there. A little history, a little folklore, I wish it were longer.

Quick read. I love stories about Florida and especially the Keys. This small collection of folk tales ended too soon for me. I would have liked to read more. I liked the voice of the storyteller very much.

Fun, very quick read. More stories would have made it better.

Very short but I learn Florida history that I didn't know. That's always a good thing.
