O Treasure Where Art Thou

O Treasure Where Art Thou is a collection of treasure stories spanning from 1901 to 1968. Many are outlandish, some just plain lies, but others mostly true. Tall treasure tales and Florida just seem to go together. This collection contains treasure hunts from the Gulf of Mexico and the dark waters of the Suwannee River to the swamps of the Everglades and the clear blue water of the Florida Keys. Read about the little girl who found a fortune while making mudpies in her garden or the young boy who found pieces of eight on the beach and started a treasure frenzy in Fort Lauderdale. Find out who really found the 1715 wrecks first, and how long ago. This book contains information covering the 1733 Fleet tragedy, the 1715 fleet sinking off Vero Beach, and hints of the 1622 Atocha sinking. Research for this publication has revealed documents showing the greed and dirty dealings of the State of Florida, who once laughed at the fortune hunters until they hit it big. Travel back in time when the beaches were barren, the people were few and the treasure was there for the taking. Follow the treasure hunters as they comb the beaches and dive the shallow waters off the coast in the quest for Florida's riches. There are over a hundred treasure tales on the pages inside that will take you back to a more easy romantic time. A fun, educational, and revealing read.
