Buried vaults stacked with gold bars, secret caches of coins and
jewels plundered from the Spaniards and the Church, exposed veins
of ore with nuggets the size of turkey eggs. Guarded by the bones
of dead men, the legendary treasures of the Southwest still wait
for those foolhardy or desperate enough to seek them.
Death is the cure for gold fever, and the lucky few who saw the
riches and lived to tell of them spent the rest of their lives
searching, haunted by faulty memories, changed landscapes, and
quirks of fate. It is the stories of these men and the wealth they
pursued that J. Frank Dobie tells in Apache Gold and Yaqui
Silver.
In this masterful collection of tales, Dobie introduces us to
Pedro Loco, General Mexhuira's ghost, the German, and a colorful
group of oddfellows driven to roam the hills in an eternal quest
for the hidden entrance, the blazed tree, the box canyon, for
fabulous wealth glimpsed, lost, and never forgotten.
Are treasures really there? Searchers still seek them. But for
the reader, the treasure is here-- Dobie's tales are pure gold.
