 The
Greatest Treasure Hunting Stories Ever Told
by Charles Elliott
Recapturing the essential romance of classic stories, many of the tales
are true - or purport to be. They encompass all the great themes --
obsession, tragedy, danger, crime, frustration and terrible physical
challenge, success and disappointment. They take place under the
sea, in jungles, on desert islands, even in the attics of old houses.
The treasure itself is not always gold and silver and diamonds -- it may
be lost documents, the solution to a historical puzzle, or an unexpected
archaeological discovery. What is common to them all is the
excitement of the chase and the possibility -- irrational, perhaps, but
unavoidable -- that
treasure
really is there for the finding. Hardbound, 292 pages.
