Buried Treasures of California

Buried Treasures of California

After reading these 30 revived tales of wealth and splendor, you will be tempted to throw some supplies into a backpack like the '49-ers of old and head west. Although stories of lost gold and silver veins are abundant (â€œMysterious Blue Ledge of Gold,â€ â€œThe Curse of the Mormon Silver Ledgeâ€), they in no way represent all of the wealth hidden in California's geography and folklore. Does Death Valley hold more than just sand and arid desert; is it also the â€œCanyon of Lost Goldâ€ and site of the â€œGolden Gravels of Goler Washâ€? Is the long California coastline covering secrets (â€œGold in the Sandâ€) and hidden riches (â€œLost North Beach Million,â€ â€œFive Hundred Pound Silver Ingotâ€)? Are the sprawling metropolises now covering the priceless artifacts of an emperor (â€œThe Hollywood Bowl Treasureâ€)? Outlaws, prospectors, Indians, loners and Mexicans throw themselves into all the adventure and intrigue. California's mountains, deserts, beaches, and citiesâ€•as well as sunken treasureâ€•are all encompassed in this collection.
