One of the biggest treasures thought still to be hidden in America is the shipment of the Mexican treasury just before Emperor Maximilian I of Mexico was executed by a Mexican nationalist firing squad. He sent his wife ahead early to Europe to receive the entire treasure, but neither he, nor the treasure ever made it. Six Missourians hired to assist the Austrian Guards in taking a 15-wagon team train in which the treasure was disguised as flour barrels from Mexico through West Texas to the port of Galveston, killed the wagon masters somewhere between Horsehead Crossing over the Pecos River and Castle Gap, a deep cut "V" between Castle Mountain and King Mountain. Estimates of the value of the treasure continue to escalate over time as the gold, silver, minted coins, metal plate, and jewels achieve greater historical value, not to mention the intrinsic price increases of the gold and silver. This historical fiction is based on fact. The treasure has never been found. The last estimated worth was over $10,000,000. I now estimate the value to be at least $200,000,000, although it could be considered priceless for its historic value. Only one man survived the trip after he and his six friends shot the entire wagon master crew, and then were killed by a marauding Comanche band themselves. He made it to Fort Concho, but was barely alive. As he lay dying, he drew a map of the Castle Gap area with markers of where the treasure was buried and gave it to Doctor Black, an appropriate name for the occasion. Dr. Black got together with a friend several months later and set out to find the buried treasure. They had not counted on the rapidly shifting dirt and sand, or the rapid degeneration of vegetation from the raw powerful gusts of West Texas storms. They never found the treasure. Countless legal and illegal parties blasted holes at night with dynamite on a ranchers property, and then tried to find the treasure by day, have searched over the past 150 years plus, but failed. Emperor Maximilian lost his life, Carlota, his empress went mad. The treasure sits somewhere laughing at the world.

There are certain dangers in this activity that not everyone is ready for. A person has to be committed to face danger as one of the rules of this wild game. This activity is for those that aren't afraid to risk it all to find a treasure. The author and his friends risked more than enough in some of the projects that they got into. Sometimes we wonder about the risks and dangers Miguel and his friends were exposed to in the past. Was it worth it? Yes it was! Fortunately, they came out of it alive. We can't say the same for other less fortunate individuals that lost it all, after successfully finding and excavating a treasure in Mexico.

This large, easy-to-use volume lists the works of more than eleven hundred different authors, covering thousands of stories of lost mines and buried treasures supposedly located in fifteen Western and Southwestern states and in Mexico. In addition to being a boon to those adventurers who are tempted to search for lost mines and buried treasures, it will be an important basic research tool for historians, geologists, geographers, anthropologists, archaeologists, and folklorists, and it will be useful in identifying the man treasure hoards and mining claims all the way from the Lost Adams Diggings in Arizona to the Stagecoach in Wyoming. The information given in this important bibliography was acquired through perusal of an unusually large number of books, newspapers, magazines, unpublished manuscripts, deposits in private and public libraries, holdings of various historical foundations, and governmental records and archives. The task took Mr. Probert three full years of steady, patient work. Many of these stories of lost mines and buried treasures have resulted in the discovery of some that are rarely acknowledged, largely because, as Mr. Probert points out, "those who have been so fortunate as to find the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow have deemed it wiser and much safer to keep their own counsel" -- Book jacket.
