Florida's Fabulous Treasures
This is an eBook of my web site, and would be a nice permanent reference tool. It contains the following chapters, Florida Treasures, Gasparilla, Ais Indians, Fontaneda, Hurricanes, Florida Forts and Topos. There are four additional chapters, not shown on my site, about Florida cattle ranchers and their buried gold. These are, without a doubt, the best treasure leads in the State of Florida, because the cattlemen were paid in gold coins for their cattle. With a little research, someone could pinpoint their homesteads, and find these caches. Also included is a map of the 1715 wreck sites. This eBook has over 100 pages of content.
