The Treasure Seeker’s Treasury
Roy Norvill

This is a collection of stories about landlocked treasures, how they came to be hidden and the attempts that have been made to find them. From pirate caches on Cocos and Mahé to ‘President’ Walker’s lost gold, the author has collected the clues, the maps and the cyphers of more than 30 priceless caches to create an up-to-date companion for the treasure seeker.

Hardback with dust jacket in cellophane cover. Small tears to top and bottom edges of dust jacket have been repaired with archival tape; small scuffs have removed lop layer of lamination on spine. Ex. library copy: signs of lending papers having been removed from front inside cover and front endpaper. Old sellotape marks on inside front and back covers. Library stamp on title page and reverse. Rust coloured spots on outside edges of some pages have bled into those pages. ‘£5.50’ inscribed on page inside cover. Internal pages in otherwise good condition – none torn or missing.
