Confederate Treasure in Danville

Confederate Treasure in Danville by Carroll, J. Frank. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780933571495.

April 3rd, 1865 $500,000 to $600,000 in specie arrived in Danville, VA. It is ironic that while the Confederacy was in its dying throes, the Confederate treasure was only beginning to live. Although most of the bounty from that treasure was distributed in 1865, heretofore uncovered facts lend credibility to that continued life. Confederate Treasure in Danville reawakens interest in an almost forgotten fortune that has secretly slumbered in undisturbed earth for over 130 years. Now, the silvery voice of that sleepy treasure calls from its resting place and draws attention to a city on the Dan River. Somewhere in the Last Capital of the Confederacy is buried a significant portion of the fortune currently worth between $10 and $74 million. The trek wont be easy though! The spot cannot be found by reading selected portions of the book. Clues found in every chapter and clever detective work are necessary to determine its whereabouts. Dont head to your local hardware store to pick up a shovel! Smart sleuths will discover that this dig requires using a mental shovel instead.
