5.0 out of 5 stars This is Randy Wayne White's best book., 26 Mar 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: North of Havana (Paperback)
A little less than a year ago I was attending summer classes at the University of Florida and I had some extra time on my hands. I had never been a big reader, but one of my roomates gave me a copy of Sanibel Flats (White's first book) to read. Since then I have read all of the Doc Ford novels and have become a huge fan. North of Havana has become one of my favorite books of all time. I am a born and raised Floridian with a love of fishing. In fact it is only a short boat ride from my house to Sanibel Island. North of Havana captured me from the beginning. I am in awe of the "world in Cuba" so there was a natural attraction to the book. I have also followed Doc Ford's relationship with Dewey Nye through the previous books. In fact I would recomend reading his previous books to fully understand the special relationship between them. I also love the way White brought back Pilar, Doc's former lover, at the end of the book. White has revived me as a dedicated reader and I can not wait for more to come.

"No good deed goes unpunished."

"Doc" Ford goes to Cuba to spring his old hippy buddy Tomlinson, who (for reasons not immediately clear) sailed too near the island and had his sailboat impounded. "Doc" has good reasons not to go, mostly because of his previous activities in Cuba on behalf of shadowy Federal agencies, but including service as Fidel's Yanqui catcher for an exhibition baseball game (!) during which he had a serious dispute on the mound with "El Pitcher Maximo" which Castro - notorious for nursing grudges - is unlikely to forgive or forget. A complication is the appearance of another friend who needs his help: Dewey, a lesbian athlete on the rebound from a shattered love affair. But he and Dewey, posing as a tourist couple (and with $10,000 US stuffed in a mone

2.0 out of 5 stars Interesting at first, 15 May 1999
By A Customer
I got bored halfway and lost interest. I was browsing in the library and happen to see this book. It caught my eye because it was about Cuba and I wanted to know more about the country. I wanted to visit Cuba but not now.
