"This is the best work ever written on hidden treasure, and one of the most fascinating books on any subject to come out of Texas," - Basic Texas Books. Written in 1930, Coronado's Children was one of J. Frank Dobie's first books, and the one that helped gain him national prominence as a folklorist. In it, he recounts the tales and legends of those hardy souls who searched for buried treasure in the Southwest following in the footsteps of that earlier gold seeker, the Spaniard Coronado. Tales such as, The Lost San Saba Mine, Jim Bowies Mine, The Lost Blano mine, The Stuffed Cannon of the Neches, Santa Anna's Chests, and much more are exhaustively researched and written in easy to read stories. An absolute must for any treasure seeker in the Southwest.
