A concise guide to Buffett sightseeing on Key West February 2, 2010
D. Goodwin (Atlanta, GA)
I picked up Corcoran's book on Buffett while in Key West, so I could use it as a sightseeing guide. The book is short, but very informative (because Corcoran was actually among the motley crew in KW during the 70's). From the locations of Jimmy's former abodes to sites of notable shows, the book is fairly comprehensive. I was able to locate his apartment on Waddell St., which Hunter S. Thompson stayed in for several years and learned about some Buffett connections to places I'd already been. Some reviewers have been harsh, but this $10 guide is a nice addition to any Parrothead's collection.

I didn't pay much attention to those that wrote this was a thin and uninspiring effort but should have. The entire book reads in a matter of minutes and there's nothing in it that makes you go "huh, that was interesting". Most of it is mundane tidbits about Buffett's time in Key West. I'm sure Buffett's years in Key West were wild, funny and memorable, this book is memorable only for the fact you're being charged $10 for a 5 minute read.
 A fun, quick read November 29, 2008

I bought it because I like Buffett and Corcoran and I was not disappointed. A good read and well written.

This book is not much more than a compilation of a few of old photographs of Jimmy Buffett and some of his old haunts. The people who critiqued it very harshly should consider the nature of the book before making a negative comment. The book WAS worth the 10 dollars paid for it, old photographs and the 1st and 2nd hand experiences written about Jimmy Buffett's adventures at each location are worth the small price. The book isn't long, it isn't very detailed, but the old photographs and little details will help any Parrothead to picture the manner of which Jimmy's songs and stories originated.
