Buried Treasures of the Atlantic Coast: Legends of Sunken Pirate Treasures, Mysterious Caches, and Jinxed Ships, from Maine to Florida

Description: This book is a collection of more than thirty stories about long lost buried treasures and forgotten stashes that are said to be hidden along the Atlantic Coast.

Review Quotes: The stories appear to be thoroughly researched and are written in a lively, narrative style. Jameson features the typical pirate legends, such as Blackbeard, but also makes readers aware of the lesser-know reasons for lost treasure, such as weather-related shipwrecks and inland burial sites that are difficult to find. State maps indicate the probable locations of the lost booty discussed. An interesting piece of history for nonfiction and adventure buffs.--Rita Soltan "School Library Journal "
