The Bible on The Lost Dutchman Gold Mine and Jacob Waltz - A Pioneer History of the Gold Rush

In July 2000 U.S. News and World Report named the world's greatest mysteries: Jacob Waltz's Lost Dutchman Gold Mine was listed among such notables as Noah's Ark, the Holy Grail, the Ark of the Covenant and King Solomon's Mines.

Coincidentally, author, Helen Corbin, working on her third Superstition title, was given permission to use heretofore unpublished diaries from four pioneer families. The research, for the first time in history, documents Waltz from birth to the grave. Besides the manifest of the ship on which he sailed to America, there are German translations of the directions to Jacob's infamous mine given to Reiney Petrasch and Julia Thomas before the old man died. In fact, this landmark text offers historical proof of these and all major speculations that have occurred in the hundreds of book published in the 111 years following the German's death.
