2.0 out of 5 stars
Not quite what i expected,

This review is from: Gold Diggers Atlas (Prospecting and Treasure Hunting) (Paperback)
I grew up in northern California, and i was expecting much for detail. Knowing what i know about my area, the maps were severely lacking. I assume this applies to many of the other areas in the book that I know less about.It had some very general observations that might be useful for the casual history buff, but if your going out prospecting with your GPS and a pan, save your money for either real maps or lunch. This book will not help the local prospector with even the basic knowledge.

This review is from: Gold Diggers Atlas (Prospecting and Treasure Hunting) (Paperback)
This is an update of an old book that is very interesting. So, if you are expecting to see I70 in the middle of Utah, it won't be there. But, it does give you an old view from times when a lot of people gave prospecting some serious attention. I bought it for it's older view of where you can find gold.

if you don't live out west, don't order this book!,
By Ole Vietnam Marine "cherokeemarine" (Blue Springs, Missouri United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Gold Diggers Atlas (Prospecting and Treasure Hunting) (Paperback)
Got the book (pamplet)today and was totally disappointed. I live over 600 miles from the nearest place (Denver, Co) that is listed in this small (book?). I live in the Kansas City area and must travel forever to use this stupid map of old goldmines (which as anybody with brains knows are 'Private property'). I think the authors should tell the truth in the introduction (only written page in (book?)).
