Why write a book on State treasure stories? Because Most everyone dreams of finding treasure Many of us have heard about some form of lost or hidden treasure, maybe even made an attempt at locating it. Some of the lost treasures described in the book are large enough that a person could retire after finding one of them Some will be smaller than they are claimed to be, no doubt. Most hidden treasures are little-known since they were not considered anything but "rainy day money" when they were hidden away. The little caches could be hidden in baking powder tins or Mason jars or other common containers.
