Good Map
Love these maps.Always buy one of the states we are visiting.. have saved many hours of stuck in construction or accident, plus allows us to visit out of the way places.recommend to anyone.

It's a true bargain
The North Dakota Atlas & Gazetteer, and others in the series, include nearly everything you would expect to find on a map and more, including roads; railroad lines, current and abandoned; towns; rivers; lakes; thehigher hills; Wildlife management Areas; federal and state land such aswildlife reuges and parks; fishing areas,; wildlife viewing areas,including what type of wildlife can be see; campgrounds; unique naturalfeatures; museums and other attractions; tribal lands; historic sites andtrails.

These not only are in the maps, but many are cross-referenced inindexes.

There also is a complete index of place names and map features,plus marks fo using the maps with the Global Positioning System.

Theother books in the Atlas & Gazetteer series are of equal quality, ifyou are interested in any ohter states.

You can't obtain so muchinformatin about North Dakota anywhere in 66 pages or the North DakotaAtlas & Gazeteer's price.

It's a true bargain, and a real service tooutdoor enthusiasts and travelers.

one, this book is old and vague. mostly list ghost towns with vague location, list of civil war battles site which is common knowledge andnearly all are park service properties!! hunting is LEGAL!!, and lores with veryyyy vague areas so much so you will have to spent alot of time researching in other books and web. this book is an index of things to google.save your money and join a free treasure hunting forum.

Price and Shipping
I ordered a Book on line and although I did find it a little cheaper on another Web site I choose this one to see how long it would take to reach me . I was amazed that it only took a week from order to delivery. Needless to say I was very satisfied and will continue to order thru this web site . THANKS FOR YOUR PROMPT ATTENTION TO MY REQUESTS.

California Treasure.
This atlas has a good grasp the legends and actual sites where teasure may be found. Of course, if X marked the spot the treasures would have been found long ago, if they indeed exist. The location of the ghost towns is what I purchased the atlas for and it seems complete. This atas is a must for artifacts seekers like myself. T Bird.

AN INVALUABLE RESOURCE.
Being an enthusiastic amateur treasure hunter myself, in years past, I diligently read each and every volume of Mr. Terry's exhaustively researched works. Although I found some the information erroneous or far from exact - for instance many locations cited as "ghost towns" are FAR from being one - there are so many intriguing stories of legends, factual evidence & stories of past recoveries that any true TH'r will be enthralled. Treasure hunting is supposedly America's fastest growing hobby: it's uniquely enjoyable for the adventure, historical aspects & healthy outdoor recreation. And when you really find something decent...Boy Howdy!! Not as easy as it sounds, though. To be a professional TH'r, one has to have patience, applying oneself with the perseverance of a detective: because that's what it takes to be successful. Exhaustive research is the key: going where people gathered long ago (old picnic grounds & abandoned schoolyards, for instance) will be beneficial for coin shooters who are after more than modern coins....for me, finding modern coins was a complete waste of time & energy. Going for the gold? Go where it is KNOWN to be & be creative: the better your equipment - i.e. a decent detector which finds gold & common sense makes this a most fascinating hobby. For some, it's a life's career. Good luck!!

NotAll Treasure Is In The Sea
Found this to be a very interesting paperback book for anyone dreaming of treasure hunting/finds. But, I wish it was updated. I'm sure there are more interesting things about Florida. Not all of Fla. treasure finds are in the sea as this book notes. Worth reading.Open anywhere and begin reading. ... Read more
