Key Largo: A Play in a Prologue and Two Acts

Key Largo is a play written by Maxwell Anderson, consisting of a prologue and two acts. The story takes place in Key Largo, Florida, where a group of people find themselves trapped in a hotel during a hurricane. The main character, Frank McCloud, is a World War II veteran who comes to visit the family of a fellow soldier who died in combat. He soon discovers that the hotel has been taken over by a gangster named Johnny Rocco, who is hiding out from the law. As the storm rages on outside, tensions rise inside the hotel as Rocco and his henchmen become increasingly violent and unpredictable. McCloud must navigate the dangerous situation and find a way to protect the innocent people trapped with him. The play explores themes of morality, loyalty, and the consequences of violence. Key Largo has been adapted into several films and is considered a classic of American theater.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
