| The Lost Adams Diggings - Myth, Mystery and Madness by Jack Purcell The earliest sources and threads of the legend traced through military records, early accounts from Adams and compared in detail and context. Exhaustively researched analysis of who these men were, why they were in Arizona and why they lied about it later. Why the Apaches called the canyon 'Sno Ta Hay'. The identity of 'Dutchman'. The location the 'Dutchman' gave his friends. The real 'fort in the malpais'. Dr. Sturgeon's military records, locations, and connection with Adams, Brewer, Davidson and the 'Dutchman' or German. Brewer's escape route. Apache Chief Nana's claim and what it means. How John Brewer, James Chase, Tenney and James Gray were intimately connected. The Allen, Byerts, Jones, Brewer, Williams and Patterson accounts in their earliest recorded versions. Desert survival, equipment needs and other essentials if you plan to be a searcher. Descriptions of where the author searched and what he found there. Lessons learned and where he'll search in the future. 240 pages including maps, photographs, flow-charts, 160 footnotes, complete index and more. Purcell has spent twenty years searching canyons and researching documents. This book is the 2003 result of those years. Webpage: jackpurcellbooks.us |
