Buried Treasures of the Pacific Northwest: Secret Indian Mines, Lost Outlaw Hoards, and Stolen Payroll Coins
Secret Indian mines, lost outlaw hoards, and stolen payroll coins!
Do Native Americans know the location of the cursed “Lost Gold of Devil's Sink”? Did Sir Francis Drake bury millions of dollars' worth of ancient Incan treasures? Has anyone found the box of gold coins buried by a reputed giant in the Washington rain forest? Is there a noble family's fortune buried near an old log cabin in the Cascades?
These 32 revived tales of wealth and splendor not only share these mysteries but also immerse readers in a prospecting culture almost as rich as the treasures themselves. The wilds of the Pacific Northwest's vast territory and numerous subregions are all encompassed in this collection, from the picturesque coastline east over the snowy mountains and into the vast plateau leading into Idaho.
The Pacific Northwest provides a picturesque backdrop for these stories as it stretches from the rugged coastline east over the snowy mountains and into the vast plateau that leads to Idaho. For over a century, outlaws, prospectors, Russians, Indians, loners, soldiers, and immigrants have thrown themselves into all of the adventure and intrigue money can buy. These myths of fur traders, trappers and Chinook Indian culture teach readers the importance of courage, responsibility and resourcefulness.
