In the late 60's a group of poets, writers, and musicians descended upon Key West to pursue their love of literature and fishing (and cocaine and acid). Initiated by Tom McGuane - the prodigal son of American Literature of the 1970s - his friends Jim Harrison, Richard Brautigan, Russell Chatham, and Jimmy Buffett soon joined, creating some of the best art of their generation.
