Books with author W. Cleon Skousen

When Bassam learned that he could read the legendary secret scrolls for himself, his imagination caught fire with dreams of fantastic wealth of gold and of treasure that would finally let him claim his beloved Rasha. But first, he had to earn the trust of Zafir, a lone chieftain of the mighty Abdali-ud-din trading dynasty and the last living trustee of the mysterious Seven Secret Scrolls. To tutor Bassam in the teachings of the scrolls, Zafir took him with his caravan of 300 sword-bearing men through the tough rigors of a 6000-mile trek from the high deserts of Arabia to Babylon, the Fergana Valley and Kashgar, past bandits and sandstorms, beyond the great Taklamakan Desert, and into the mystical antiquities of ancient China. The venture would exact two years from the boy's life---with lethal encounters from the raiders of Fukura, the Sons of Ka, subterfuge, suffering and attack---but along the way, young Bassam would discover in the scrolls more than the secrets of wealth that were rumored to be so unbelievably rich. He would find the greatest treasure of them all---and so will you.
