Ernest Hemingway's Key West Years: Self-Guided Audio Walking Tour

This self-guided audio walk follows Ernest Hemingway's years in Key West, 1928 to 1939, at seven stops. Every stop comes with two to four links to its sources, among them clippings from the Key West Citizen of his years and his own letters. He landed in April 1928 and sailed for Havana on December 24, 1939. The walk opens in your phone's web browser, with no app to install, and each stop is told from the public sidewalk or a public park. At each stop you get a short narration to hear, the same words to read, and two to four links to its sources. The sources include the Key West paper of the day, a letter of his from April 1928 and a federal survey of the house. Where a story comes from a later teller and not from a record of the time, the narration names the teller. The route is about 2.1 miles (3.4 km) on foot. Walking takes about 45 minutes and the narration about 16 minutes. With time at each stop, allow up to 2 hours. It starts at Simonton and Caroline Streets.
