THE LOST CHURCH TREASURE of SANTA FE DECIPHERING the CVRSVM PERFICIO and the JESUIT STONE MAPS: Deciphering the CVRSVM PERFICIO and the JESUIT STONE M (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798218259150)

Most legends used by today's treasure hunters who search for lost Jesuit treasure or the Lost Dutchman Gold Mine have been exactly that. Those legends were often created for personal gain in order to perpetuate myths about hidden treasure in the Superstition Mountains of Arizona. Nothing is ever as it seems, and the story of the Lost Dutchman Gold Mine and the granddaddy of them all--the Lost Church Treasure of Santa Fe--are intertwined in the most astonishing way. When the truth is so simple, but hard to get to, it takes a person who never gives up and keeps digging to uncover every clue. The author of this book has done just that. The truth about the Jesuits, the Conquistadors, and the Native Americans who were prominent in those legends is revealed. And the truth about the greatest treasure in America is astounding!

The book will take you along rugged mountain trails following the maps, the coordinates, and the Salt River to exactly where the Jesuits hid their vast treasures prior to being exiled from what is now the American Southwest in 1767. Learn about the trail monuments which marked the way, and then go visit them for yourself. You will learn, first hand, how the Jesuits hid and eventually recovered their great wealth.

Come along with the author on the roughest journey you will ever take along those trails he backpacked for thirty years. But be forewarned, bring plenty of water!
