LOST EL DORADO OF JACOB WALTZ by Jack San Felice

LOST EL DORADO OF JACOB WALTZ is based in part on a newspaper story by Pierpont Constible Bicknell, as well as the reminiscences and recollections of numerous "Dutch Hunters". This book contradicts the myth of the Dutchman's Mine being near Weaver's Needle. Jack comes to his conclusion after 20 years of diligent research of the Dutchman Tale. He also relies on factual and scientific evidence regarding the search for precious metals. Because his theory veers from the standard local mythology, San Felice asks the reader to take a quantam leap of faith and follow the trail of the Lost Dutchman Mine in a new direction.
