Herein an attempt has been made to correlate and condense more than two hundred historical tales and legends of lost mines. In some instances little more than a place is noted, in others, a short condensed version of the tale so that it is only necessary for the adventurous nomad to furnish a little imagination as to the action which took place. Much of the buried treasure remains hidden and the mountains will continue to reward the seeker of gold. There is romance and adventure in the quest. Many of the best mines will be found. This is a reprint of the 1953 edition.

Buried Treasures of the American Southwest
Author: W. C. Jameson
Publisher: august house
ISBN:
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 228
Book Description
Legends like these have long circulated in the American Southwest, and now for the first time they are collected in a single volume. Jameson gathered his material from his own extensive, on-site research in Arizona, Arkansas, New Mexico, Oklahoma, and Texas, and from interviews with people whose lives have been entwined with the search for particular treasures. Though the lore sounds fabulous, it has all grown out of the actual histories of Indians, outlaws, conquistadors, priests, and ranchers - characters well documented in the drama of the unfolding West. Book jacket.
