Description
This book is a great history about the Superstition Mountains, its people, and its legend with an ending still unwritten. Few subjects attribute so much to legend and lore as does the famous tale of the Lost Dutchman Mine. For almost a century men and women have searched the Superstition Mountains of central Arizona for what they believe is the richest gold mine in the world. It is their stories which compose most of the history of these mountains. The search continues today at a pace unequaled in the annals of the American Southwest. Superstition Mountain: A Ride Through Time tells the tantalizing, true tales of the many men and women who have ventured into the Superstition Wilderness to search for gold mines or hidden treasure. - Inside front cover.
