To a professional treasure hunter, the era of the Civil War is attractive in a number of ways. For one thing, many of the lost or cached military payrolls are documented, so the fortune at the end of the search remains a real one as opposed to a folklorical or mythical one. The truth is, there are millions of dollars worth of such payrolls waiting to be discovered. Further, recovered artifacts associated with both the Union and Confederate armies can sometimes yield impressively high values among collectors. Recovered weapons caches find a viable market. Most tales of lost mines and buried treasures are steeped in history and/or lore. The added element of the fascinating era of the Civil War adds a particular level of interest and excitement to the quest. For the first time, an exhaustively researched collection of some of the most notable lost treasures of the Civil War is presented in this book.

Today, a dedicated band of treasure hunters continue the search for the biggest hoards of gold, coins and relics of the Civil War era that have never been found.Civil War treasure hunter and historian W. Craig Gaines has produced a fascinating introduction to lost Civil War treasure, including a chapter and maps devoted to each of the forty states, as well as Mexico, the Bahamas and the West Indies, where lost treasures are said to be buried.Many tales of Civil War treasure belong in the realm of legendary and Gaines has carefully assembled the evidence to separate genuine incidents from fanciful. Each Civil War treasure tale is documented and has references for further research. Both the general Civil War enthusiast and the prospective treasure-hunter will be fascinated by these stories, including lost mines discovered during campaigns in the West, lost family treasures hidden from Union or Confederate raiders, sunken Confederate blockade-runners, lost payrolls of military units, and the missing loot from Confederate raids on the Colorado gold fields. The author has also drawn upon his many years' experience in research and exploration to provide an extensive guide to the world of the Civil War treasure and relic hunter, including journals, organizations, websites, government agencies, shops and manufacturers.

As Hawk lies on the bottom of the pool paralyzed he realizes the gypsy was right again. How long can he hold his breath before someone notices? Will he be able to pull through this to finish the remaining predictions? Greg Hawk's memoir of a life's adventure takes a drastic turn at the end of a divorce as he listens to a gypsy lady in New Zealand predict things on the path ahead. Every obstacle on his path in life has put him on another tangent of learning and struggle, at times driving him to the edge of defeat. During these years, death seemed to be a constant companion as he witnessed it, as well as facing it personally. As a soldier, a husband, a divorcee, a partner of a successful construction business in Denver, owner of Fantasy Dive Charters in Australia, to being a treasure hunter in the mountains and desert of the Southwest, he faced many self-imposed challenges." Random Tangents is a celebration of a life well-lived, of obstacles overcome, of the triumph of spirit. And let's face it, sometimes a little luck."
