Download or read book The Lost Treasures of Montana written by Peter Netzel and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-05-20 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Lost Treasures of Montana is a series of books on the lost treasures that can be found in Montana, by region. The series is based on over a decade of researching old treasure legends. This black and white version of the book contains details of locations of buried caches and lost treasures in Missouri Country, Montana. Counties covered in this edition of The Lost Treasures of Montana: MISSOURI COUNTRY, are: Roosevelt, McCone, Garfield, Sheridan, Phillips, Richland, Daniels, and Valley counties. In the Lost Treasures of Montana series, you will even find a few lost treasures never before presented in books! The stories take you back to the time of the Wild West. You will meet the colorful outlaw characters who stole the loot and learn how they did it. Most of these stories also include maps, in case you wish to search for hidden treasure yourself! Stories of likely locations of hidden treasure covered in this book include: The story of George Whitney: Livestock Rustler, the outlaw who was described by locals as a polite gentleman and ladies man, while at the same time being dubbed by the Montana Stockgrower's Association as "the major rustler in eastern Montana," who met anyone approaching his cabin with his guns at the ready. Another tale, Fort Musselshell or "Two Sleeps," where the Gros Ventre tribe would bring gold dust and nuggets for trading giving only a hint at the site of the source of the gold as being "two sleeps to the south of the post." There is the legend of Fort Peck's William Kittering, the wealthy merchant, who buried 35,000 in gold coins on one of his properties, but died without divulging its location to anyone in Died Without Telling. Dragged To The Bottom & Swept Away, details the story of a gold miner whose heavy money belt took him to the bottom of the river where he and his gold could still lay. There is the legend of The Mysterious Case Of Bill Crane, which tells of a hermit who was a prolific counterfeiter living on an island. When he was killed, counterfeit $10 and $20 gold pieces were found along the lake shore; but, had he buried the real money he had made from shipments of the counterfeits to Chicago? There are several intriguing stories: Never Seen Again, Keyes Gold Mine Update, Nepee's Gold, and Boating Down The Missouri, which relate the lurid details about men who sought after, but never found a rich lost gold cache in the Little Rockies which was first reported by Chris Keyes. Also included in The Lost Treasures Of Montana: Missouri Country are the legends of lost silver and gold mines in this region of Montana; these appear in the stories: Piney Buttes, The Lost Laverdure Mine, Lost Arch Silver Placer and North of Poplar. The book also includes descriptions of several outlaw loot stashes that were never found in stories like: Hidden At The Forks, West of Malta, The Great Northern Train Robbery, Six-Shooter Bob Walsh, and Base Of Operations South Of Landusky. Not only will reading the books in this series appeal to treasure hunters, but any reader will enjoy reading about the rich and colorful history of the Old West in its gold rush days.

Download or read book Steamboat Disasters of the Lower Missouri River written by Vicki Berger Erwin & James Erwin and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2020-02-24 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the nineteenth century, more than three hundred boats met their end in the steamboat graveyard that was the Lower Missouri River, from Omaha to its mouth. Although derided as little more than an "orderly pile of kindling," steamboats were, in fact, technological marvels superbly adapted to the river's conditions. Their light superstructure and long, wide, flat hulls powered by high-pressure engines drew so little water that they could cruise on "a heavy dew" even when fully loaded. But these same characteristics made them susceptible to fires, explosions and snags--tree trunks ripped from the banks, hiding under the water's surface. Authors Vicki and James Erwin detail the perils that steamboats, their passengers and crews faced on every voyage.

Download or read book Lost Mines and Treasure Tales of the Lower Mississippi written by Ivan Herring and published by . This book was released on 2018-06-25 with total page 103 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains 125 stories of Lost Mines and Treasurers, of the Lower Mississippi River area of the United States, which covers the States of Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi and Missouri. Many of the stories concern treasurers buried by the French, British, Indians and Colonial settlers during the many wars that rocked the area in the 18th and 19th centuries. I found the data for this book while doing research on old mines for my series of books Mines of the American West. The "Lost Mines and Treasurers" were identified from articles in early American newspapers and other sources considered reliable. Where possible, for those lost treasures still to be found, I have tried to tie them to modern mines or areas and include some background data on such areas. In doing this, some of them seemed to "fall short" in the area of fact and logic. The reader should understand that this is a collection of data from old and new publications and not a focused specifically on the effort to find the specific properties, although some research, especially from a logic standpoint, has been done. If the reader can glean critical information from these original articles and the limited research that allows or helps him or her to locate a "lost mine" or "lost treasure", I wish him or her well and leave it to them to reap the rewards.The print version of this book has been produced in the 81⁄2" X 11" format to keep the price low. If done in 6" X 9" or smaller, the book would be 2 or 3 times as many pages in length and would cost substantially more to increased "on demand" print costs. These seem to be heavily influenced by the total number of pages. While this may be one of the seeming drawbacks to "on-demand printing", the benefit of "on-demand printing" is that specialty books, such as this, are now practical to publish where the target market may be relatively small and minimal returns to the author are acceptable.

Download or read book The Secret written by Byron Preiss and published by ibooks. This book was released on 2016-10-05 with total page 1 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The tale begins over three-hundred years ago, when the Fair People—the goblins, fairies, dragons, and other fabled and fantastic creatures of a dozen lands—fled the Old World for the New, seeking haven from the ways of Man. With them came their precious jewels: diamonds, rubies, emeralds, pearls... But then the Fair People vanished, taking with them their twelve fabulous treasures. And they remained hidden until now... Across North America, these twelve treasures, over ten-thousand dollars in precious jewels, are buried. The key to finding each can be found within the twelve full color paintings and verses of The Secret. Yet The Secret is much more than that. At long last, you can learn not only the whereabouts of the Fair People's treasure, but also the modern forms and hiding places of their descendants: the Toll Trolls, Maitre D'eamons, Elf Alphas, Tupperwerewolves, Freudian Sylphs, Culture Vultures, West Ghosts and other delightful creatures in the world around us. The Secret is a field guide to them all. Many "armchair treasure hunt" books have been published over the years, most notably Masquerade (1979) by British artist Kit Williams. Masquerade promised a jewel-encrusted golden hare to the first person to unravel the riddle that Williams cleverly hid in his art. In 1982, while everyone in Britain was still madly digging up hedgerows and pastures in search of the golden hare, The Secret: A Treasure Hunt was published in America. The previous year, author and publisher Byron Preiss had traveled to 12 locations in the continental U.S. (and possibly Canada) to secretly bury a dozen ceramic casques. Each casque contained a small key that could be redeemed for one of 12 jewels Preiss kept in a safe deposit box in New York. The key to finding the casques was to match one of 12 paintings to one of 12 poetic verses, solve the resulting riddle, and start digging. Since 1982, only two of the 12 casques have been recovered. The first was located in Grant Park, Chicago, in 1984 by a group of students. The second was unearthed in 2004 in Cleveland by two members of the Quest4Treasure forum. Preiss was killed in an auto accident in the summer of 2005, but the hunt for his casques continues.
