The
Lost Dutchman Mine of Jacob Waltz, Part 1.
Written
to be the last word on the famous lost mine of Arizonaâs Superstition
Mountains this book covers the history of Indian, Spanish, Mexican
and American occupation in this rugged mountain range and the
search for the fantastically rich Lost Dutchman Mine. It is a
history of dedication, death, murder, treachery and deceit among
the ongoing parade of Dutch Hunters who still search these mountains
for the mysterious mine. Glover's research, from every known source
of information, is supplemented by his own personal experiences
in looking for the mine, a bibliography, an index, a complete
set of end notes and a cross reference to the Hikers Guide to
the Superstition Mountains. Virtually every fact has been traced
to its source. New maps and clues have come to light and are presented
in this book.
