"Utah's Hidden Treasures is a tour through the state of Utah, with a tidbit of other areas close by would be a good way of getting the juices flowing in the readers' veins to get up off the couch, put down the TV remote, hide the iPod and whatever device keeps them inside to venture out amongst the hills and valleys in search for that lost mine, treasure or outlaw loot! The author, having spent many years; mostly in his early years hunting such things, learned a lot about many places and accumulated dozens of stories and maps. Are they all true? Maybe not, but that's part of the excitement! It seems that most stories have been somewhat embellished, and many maps have been drawn to scam some unknowing greenhorn. But, there are good maps and good stories and it's an adventure to figure out what is and what isn't true."--provided by publisher.

The Old Spanish Trail was a pathway with but one purpose: to lead followers to the legendary land of Cibola and its immeasurable treasures of silver and gold. Lost Treasures of the Spanish Trail takes readers through the history of the trail and its surrounding lands, from the arrival of Spanish conquistadors and the treasures of Montezuma, through its expansion northward, to the traces of the trail that can still be found today, worn deeply into soft sandstone, perhaps still leading to the hidden treasures that inspire legends.

It was never my intent to write a Treasure Book, and I think you will find this is not a treasure book filled with stories regurgitated from other books or sources. This is not a book in which you will find several maps at the end giving possible false hopes of finding the hidden treasures of the past. Do they exist? I believe so however there are many treasure books full of nonsense and as a result of watching my friends fall for some of the false stories and crazy ideas, I decided to write this book in an effort to share my experiences with them hopefully teaching them to always think outside the box, what to look for, what is real and what isn't. My objective is to keep them in a sane world where in the experiences they are about to venture into are those which will be long remembered and cherished, and not those which would be full of regret.I hope that this book has serves its purpose, it is not my intent to instill false hopes into anyone, and today in these economic times it is actually quite easy to do, people in general are so ready to believe anything that will possibly ease there circumstances. Don't take this lightly, don't just jump into it, this book is not a book promising treasures! at least not that of Gold and Silver, but I can promise a treasure of experiences that will be long remembered IF you do it for the right reasons. Get up off of that couch and out away from that boob tube! Take the family! Take the kids but watch them! Take Grandma and Grandpa! But be responsible. There is nothing more worth while than learning the true history that surrounds the places you live or the place you may have visited, the true history of this continent is a history that boggles the mind. There are many things in this book that may seem presumptuous or conjecture, however it wasn't my intent to prove anything to anyone, it was only my intent to share my findings and experiences. There is much information not included in this book that can easily prove some of the seemingly presumptuous statements. What I have put in this book aside from certain edits to preserve some details, I believe is truth.But remember, it is my truth, my belief and my story. Go out and create your own adventure, prove me or disprove it makes no difference. Although it has been many years, my adventure is still just beginning. All that matters to me is that I was able to share a relatively small part of my experiences and hopefully I can share more in the future in one way or another. I do not claim to be a professional anything, I am no different from you, I have problems and weaknesses yet I prefer you focus on the message of the book, not my weaknesses. My hope is that you discover your own treasures as I have, and find them by seeking The Treasures of Utah and the Mysteries of the West.

An investigation into the lost treasures of Jesse James and the Freemasons and their connections to the Templars, Rosicrucians, and the Founding Fathers • Explains how Jesse James used techniques involving sacred geometry, gematria, and esoteric symbols to hide his treasures and encode maps • Provides instructions for using the encoding template employed by Jesse James and the Freemasons to hide and recover treasure and sacred relics • Shows how the encoding template confirms the existence of treasures on Oak Island and Victorio Peak and can be traced to a 16th-century book containing a secret map of the New World and the “hooked X” of the Knights Templar Jesse James left behind secret diaries and coded treasure maps. Working to decrypt these maps, Daniel J. Duke--the great-great-grandson of Jesse James--reveals hidden treasures yet to be recovered as well as connections between the infamous train robber and Freemasonry, the Knights Templar, the Founding Fathers, and Jewish mysticism. The author explains how Jesse James faked his death and lived out his final years under the name James L. Courtney. He uncovers James’ affiliation with the Knights of the Golden Circle, a secret society that buried Confederate gold across the United States, and shows how the hidden treasures coded into James’ maps were not affiliated with the KGC but with the Freemasons, the Knights Templar, and the treasure of the Temple Mount. Using sacred geometry, gematria, and the Kabbalistic Tree of Life symbol, the author explains the encoded map technique used by the Freemasons to hide and later recover treasures, an esoteric template known as the “Veil”. He shows how the Veil template confirms the locations of Jesse James’ recovered treasures in Texas as well as other suspected treasure locations, such as the Oak Island Money Pit and Victorio Peak in New Mexico. Tracing knowledge of the Veil template back through the centuries, the author reveals the Veil hidden on the cover of a 16th-century book that contains a secret map of the New World and the “hooked X” symbol of the Knights Templar. He shows how the template was used not only to hide treasures but also sacred knowledge and relics, such as within the Bruton Vault, which originally contained secrets tied to Francis Bacon, the Freemasons, the Rosicrucians, and the founding of the United States. Applying the Veil template alongside the esoteric secrets of Poussin’s famous painting, Et In Arcadia Ego, and Cassini’s Celestial Globe, Duke shows how the template reveals other Templar and Freemason treasure sites scattered throughout America and around the world.

The tale begins over three-hundred years ago, when the Fair People—the goblins, fairies, dragons, and other fabled and fantastic creatures of a dozen lands—fled the Old World for the New, seeking haven from the ways of Man. With them came their precious jewels: diamonds, rubies, emeralds, pearls... But then the Fair People vanished, taking with them their twelve fabulous treasures. And they remained hidden until now... Across North America, these twelve treasures, over ten-thousand dollars in precious jewels, are buried. The key to finding each can be found within the twelve full color paintings and verses of The Secret. Yet The Secret is much more than that. At long last, you can learn not only the whereabouts of the Fair People's treasure, but also the modern forms and hiding places of their descendants: the Toll Trolls, Maitre D'eamons, Elf Alphas, Tupperwerewolves, Freudian Sylphs, Culture Vultures, West Ghosts and other delightful creatures in the world around us. The Secret is a field guide to them all. Many "armchair treasure hunt" books have been published over the years, most notably Masquerade (1979) by British artist Kit Williams. Masquerade promised a jewel-encrusted golden hare to the first person to unravel the riddle that Williams cleverly hid in his art. In 1982, while everyone in Britain was still madly digging up hedgerows and pastures in search of the golden hare, The Secret: A Treasure Hunt was published in America. The previous year, author and publisher Byron Preiss had traveled to 12 locations in the continental U.S. (and possibly Canada) to secretly bury a dozen ceramic casques. Each casque contained a small key that could be redeemed for one of 12 jewels Preiss kept in a safe deposit box in New York. The key to finding the casques was to match one of 12 paintings to one of 12 poetic verses, solve the resulting riddle, and start digging. Since 1982, only two of the 12 casques have been recovered. The first was located in Grant Park, Chicago, in 1984 by a group of students. The second was unearthed in 2004 in Cleveland by two members of the Quest4Treasure forum. Preiss was killed in an auto accident in the summer of 2005, but the hunt for his casques continues.

The true story of an unsolved lost treasure of silver and gold. In 1886, 21 years after the Civil War, a shocking and brutal crime was committed in northern Arizona just south of the Utah line by two men, one of which was a 10th Calvary retired soldier. Elderly, Samuel and Charlotte Clevenger were both murdered by an ax-wielding killer. The only witness was their adopted teenage daughter, Jessie, who was abducted by the men responsible for the slaying. In secret, before his death, Sam Clevenger buried a stash of currency, silver and gold that has never been found! The legend of the Clevenger's lost gold of 1886 is a true story that is well documented and legally substantiated. The ruthless murder of Samuel and Charlotte Clevenger was considered at one time to be one of the most brutal acts ever committed in the territory of Arizona. This true story has been pulled out of the archives, old records and newspaper clippings of the time and painstakingly re-assembled into this book, providing the most accurate detailed description of the crime, court hearings, testimonies and location of the lost treasure.
