As an adult, he was an ambulance drive in WW I and later lived in Paris, Kansas City, Key West, Florida, CUBA, Idaho, and Arkansas and he traveled all over the world. "To Have and Have Not" began as a short story. Harry Morgan is an ordinary working man of the Depression Era, but he is forced by dire economic forces into the black-market activity of running contraband between Cuba and Florida. A wealthy fishing charter customer bilks Harry by slipping away without paying after a three-week fishing trip. Stuck in Havana and needing to support his family, Harry turns himself into crime.
