Hey, podnah! Do you like adventure? If you cannot go yourself, reading wonderful tales of treasure lost is the next best thing!! The subject is lost gold mines and buried treasures of your state and all the other states in the United States. One separate book for each state. These fine volumes do not just contain true stories. They also contain half a dozen or so (HOW TO) chapters! Basic, very interesting and useful. They are the most complete treasure hunting manuals on the market that I have seen. The chapters are as follows. The lost art of reading ancient Spanish mining and treasure symbols. Exiting new information on stone markers and monuments that lead to treasure. Where to find gold in rivers and streams. Information on the little known skill of dowsing for treasure and minerals. Excellent diagrams of real Spanish death traps that were pulled from ancient manuscripts. The IRS treasure trove laws. Antiquities laws. These are real man sized books!! Eight and a half by eleven. They even have extra pages to use for notes when out in the field.

W. C. Jameson collects these stories in Colorado Treasure Tales.

Join the Search for Lost Treasure First popularized by folklorist and author J. Frank Dobie in his book Apache Gold and Yaqui Silver in 1928, the legend of the Lost Adams Diggings is one of the most mythologized tales of lost treasure on the continent. In the 1860s, Gold was taken from Adams’ canyon in enormous quantities, with nuggets ranging from dust-size to some as large as hen’s eggs, all being plucked from the bottom of a shallow stream. This true story of the Lost Adams Diggings starts with the discovery of the rich deposit of gold in a remote mountain range, and ends with the author’s own story of search and discovery in the twentieth century.

This is a thoroughly revised edition of the Historical Atlas of Colorado, which was coauthored by Tom Noel and published in 1994. Chock-full of the best and latest information on Colorado, this new edition features thirty new chapters, updated text, more than 100 color maps and 100 color photos, and a best-of listing of Colorado authors and books, as well as a guide to hundreds of tourist attractions. Colorado received its name (Spanish for “red”) after much debate and many possibilities, including Idaho (an “Indian” name meaning “gem of the mountains” later discovered to be a fabrication) and Yampa (Ute for “bear”). Noel includes other little-known but significant facts about the state, from its status as first state in the Union to elect women to its legislature, to its controversial “highest state” designation, elevated by the 2013 legalization of recreational cannabis. Noel and cartographer Carol Zuber-Mallison map and describe Colorado’s spectacular geography and its fascinating past. The book’s eight parts survey natural Colorado, from rivers and mountains to dinosaurs and mammals; history, from prehistoric peoples to twenty-first-century Color-oddities; mining and manufacturing, from the gold rush to alternative energy sources; agriculture, including wineries and brewpubs; transportation, from stagecoach lines to light rail; modern Colorado, from the New Deal to the present (including politics, history, and information on lynchings, executions, and prisons); recreation, covering not only hiking and skiing but also literary locales and Colorado in the movies; and tourism, encompassing historic landmarks, museums, and even cemeteries. In short, this book has information—and surprises—that anyone interested in Colorado will relish.

This book contains 70 stories of Lost Mines and Treasurers, in Colorado and New Mexico, plus a special section on the Gran Quivera, of New Mexico. Many of the stories concern treasurers buried by the French, Spanish, Indians and Colonial settlers during the many incidents and wars that rocked the area in the 16th through the 19th centuries. I found the data for this book while doing research on old mines for my series of books Mines of the American West. The "Lost Mines and Treasurers" were identified from articles in early American newspapers and other sources considered reliable. Where possible, for those lost treasures still to be found, I have tried to tie them to modern mines or areas and include some background data on such areas. In doing this, some of them seemed to "fall short" in the area of fact and logic, which I may point out. The reader should understand that this is a collection of data from old and new publications and not a focused specifically on the effort to find the specific properties, although some research, especially from a logic standpoint, has been done. If the reader can glean critical information from these original articles and the limited research that allows or helps him or her to locate a "lost mine" or "lost treasure", I wish him or her well and leave it to them to reap the rewards.The print version of this book has been produced in the 81⁄2" X 11" format to keep the price low. If done in 6" X 9" or smaller, the book would be 2 or 3 times as many pages in length and would cost substantially more to increased "on demand" print costs. These seem to be heavily influenced by the total number of pages. While this may be one of the seeming drawbacks to "on-demand printing" - the benefit of "on-demand printing" is that specialty books, such as this, are now practical to publish where the target market may be relatively small and minimal returns to the author are acceptable.It should also be noted that I may periodically update and revise the electronic version before creating a Second Edition. The guidelines for submissions for the electronic versions allow updates, without producing a full new edition, while the "print on demand" or hard copy paperback version does not and required a full new edition to be developed to incorporate any changes. As such, the two books may not be exactly the same, as it is likely the electronic version will be updated more frequently than the paperback.
