D'Arcy O'Connor's engaging account of the secret of Oak Island is essential to gain an understanding of the mystery that has surrounded the "treasure" buried there for centuries.
I began watching The History Channel's "The Curse of Oak Island" last year and felt the need for a book that would provide a factual and unbiased account of the history of this legend. "Secret Treasure of Oak Island..." is a straightforward and systemic telling of the various efforts to reach whatever is buried there.
I strongly recommend this book to anyone who has an interest in the mystery of Oak Island.

The Hedden ShaftThis pit, known as the Hedden shaft, is the only one still visible on the site of the original Money Pit today, and is approximately the center point of the Lagina brothers’ projected “Big Dig” excavation. Hedden’s shaft was put down just east of ’the Chappell shaft and was twelve feet wide by twenty-four feet long—large enough to accommodate his lateral drilling program. |
The Dig at Borehole 10-XIt began quite innocuously in October 1969 as just another exploratory test hole, its location selected by Blankenship by dowsing, and was designated on the grid map as Borehole 10-X by the Golder geophysicists working for Triton. But it would become the deepest, most controversial, and, for Dan Blankenship, most dangerous shaft ever sunk beneath Oak Island. |
The Dig at Borehole 10-XThe discovery of metal and cavities in a virgin area where no previous searchers had ever dug or drilled prompted Triton to ream the hole large enough to permit cameras and searchers to be lowered into it. Borehole 10-X thus became a full-fledged shaft, the deepest one ever put down on the island. |
