Treasures of many kinds still lie hidden below crumbling castles and
ruined monasteries; in macabre tombs; in subterranean labyrinths and
sinister caverns. Many sunken treasures lie beneath the seas, oceans and
lakes of the world. Vast stores of pirate gold are still hidden on many
a real life treasure island such as Oak Island at Mahone Bay, Nova
Scotia. Many treasures were looted, hidden and lost after the two World
Wars - Hermann Goering, for example, one of most powerful leaders of
Nazi Germany, is strongly suspected of hiding huge treasures at
Veldenstein and Lake Zeller.
This fascinating, expertly researched book brilliantly reveals all these
unsolved mysteries. The final section covers useful ideas for
treasure-seekers: the study of old maps and charts; coded messages;
secret symbols; and intensive research into the lives and locations of
those people through out history who probably in all certainty, had
treasure to hide.
