Synopsis Lost Mines and Buried Treasures of Arizona by : W. C. Jameson
Arizona's history is liberally seasoned with legends of lost mines, buried treasures, and significant deposits of gold and silver. The famous Lost Dutchman Mine has lured treasure hunters for over a century into the remote, treacherous, and reportedly cursed Superstition Mountains east of Phoenix. Gold and silver bars discovered in Huachuca Canyon by a soldier stationed at nearby Fort Huachuca just before World War II remain inaccessible despite years of laborious attempts at recovery. Outside the town of Yucca, bandits eager to make a fast getaway buried a strongbox filled with gold, unaware they wouldn't survive the pursuit of a law-enforcing posse to recover their plunder. And somewhere in the Little Horn Mountains northeast of Yuma lies an elusive wash containing hundreds of odd gold-filled rocks. Selected from hundreds of tales passed down from generation to generation since the days of the gold-seeking Spanish explorers, the tales included here are among the most compelling that Arizona has to offer.

Synopsis The Lost Canyon of Gold by : W.C. Jameson
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.

Synopsis Lost Mines of the Old West by : Howard D. Clark
AUTHENTIC STORY OF THE “PEGLEG” AND 21 OTHER STORIES OF FABULOUS LOST MINES! Author Howard D. Clark, a Kansas native, had an extensive career in journalism with appointments including managing editor for the Farm Press Publications of Chicago, Illinois; staff writer for a number of business papers; and statistical and analytical specialist for other periodicals and concerns. This background, plus extensive travel on the Pacific Coast, fitted him particularly well to undertake the writing of this book. Lost mine legends make up a large section of Western folklore. In this collection he has made a sincere effort to present only the most important and best authenticated of them all. He has also had the invaluable assistance of Ray Hetherington, an unquestioned authority in the field of Western Americana. Much of the source material used herein was collected by Mr. Hetherington through thirty years of extensive research. First published in 1946, this collection of lost mine legends is considered among the most complete and factual of any ever assembled.
