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.

It provides excellent passages and even excellent psychology (in my opinion) of past historical figures events. It provides correct insight on how to look at history and observe its content through many well chosen documents.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.

The book was assigned to my daughter for a class; so she had no choice.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. ... ordered this book for a class and it was pretty good with explaining the significance of historical documentsBy R. LarsonI ordered this book for a class and it was pretty good with explaining the significance of historical documents; but the text was pretty dry.
