Publisher's Synopsis

Along with three partners, W.C. Jameson has participated in over 200 treasure expeditions in America and Mexico, and Treasure Hunter tells the story of his amazing adventures. Desert winds reveal the remains of a slain caravan, and deadly curses hover in the air. From encounters with amateur hunters and drug runners to the U. S. Army and a silver-crazed madman, from rattlesnakes and scorpions to quicksand and flashfloods, Treasure Hunter is filled with the excitement of ancient legends and the hazards of a quest. Through the years the explorers returned with wealth for themselvesùand always with thrilling stories. W. C. Jameson is a consummate explorer whose tales of discovery and danger will inspire readers with a sense of adventure and possibility.
