3.0 out of 5 stars For younger readers, May 11, 2008
This review is from: Buried Treasures of the Rocky Mountain West (Paperback)
An interesting book but I have found better for my age group. I gave it to my grandson who really enjoys it. A good start for him before we go out hiking and finding our treasures

This review is from: Buried Treasures of the Rocky Mountain West (Paperback)
I got this book for my husband. He loves to read about the Lost Rhode's Mine. This doesn't give enough information for my taste, but it's a really fun read. There's a lot of fun stories that will get you in the mood for treasure hunting!
