I never knew Key West had so many ghosts! Decently written, not fabulous, but as good as most of the Savannah local ghost books I've read.

I did hear "for better or for worse" about Count Carl von Cosel from a history podcast (Stuff you missed in history class) but didn't know there was a ghost component to it as well. Very cool. (
