Jameson, W. C.

The twenty-four tales in this book are of the most famous lost treasures in America, from a two-foot statue reportedly made entirely of silver; a cache of gold, silver, and jewelry; and seventeen tons of gold, buried somewhere in northwestern New Mexico. Although modern detecting technology has made all of these treasures discoverable, they have yet to be found.

A biography of John Wilkes Booth that presents the argument that Booth was never captured, but escaped and lived for decades continuing his acting career.

The author traces the life of William Bonney, alias Billy the Kid, and provides documentation that the outlaw was not killed by Sheriff Pat Garrett, but escaped and lived as William Henry Roberts until his death in 1950 at age ninety-one.

Contains 32 tales from the Rocky Mountain West area, of treasures just waiting to be found. With information obtained from historical journals, maps, on-site research, and interviews with people.
