i started to read them after i heard the buffett song "incommunicado" around 1981. has a line "Travis McGee stil in Cedar Key, that's what ol Jonh McDonald has said". had a friend who was working in a book store, so i asked her about it. she brought me a copy of "The Empty Copper Sea". i was hooked.
i also went to University of South Florida in 74 & graduated in 76. while there i worked at the campus radio station. he would come and lecture every now and then. never went and saw him or gave him any notice. always regetted that. also dated a girl who lived on siesta key in sarasota where he had a home. her parents knew him. probably could have met him that way
