What is Oklahoma Treasures and Treasures Tales about?

Son, there's more treasure buried right here In Oklahoma than in the rest of the whole Southwest. Those words from an old-timer launched Steve Wilson on a yearslong quest for the stones of Oklahomas treasures. This book is the result. It is a book of stories-some true, some legendary- about fabulous caches of lost treasure: outlaw loot buried in the heat of pursuit, hoards of Spanish gold dud silver secreted for a later day, Frenchmen's gold ingots hidden amid massive cryptic symbols, Indian treasure concealed in caves, and lost mines- gold and silver and platinum. It tells about the earliest treasure seekers of the region and those who are still hunting today. Along the way it describes shootouts and massacres, trails whose routes are preserved in the countless legends of gold hidden alongside them, Mexicans' smelters, and mines hidden and sought over the centuries. Among the chapters: 'The Secrets Spanish Fort Tells," "Quests for Red River's Silver Mines," "Oklahoma's Forgotten Treasure Trail,'" "Ghosts of Devil's Canyon and Their Gold," "Jesse James's Two-Million-Dollar Treasure," "The Last Cave with the Iron Door," and, perhaps most intriguing of all, "The Mystery of Cascorillo
