There are a LOT
of books ( and magazine articles AND
newsletter articles ! ) available that are
about the KGC---or at least mention the KGC.
Some of these books are available to
buy---either through the major internet book
sellers ( like Amazon ) or EBAY. Sometimes
( in the "classified ads" ) you can find
some of the rarer editions for sale in the
Treasure-related forums on the internet.
"The More You
Read---The More You Learn ! "
If you REALLY
want to learn about the KGC---and HOW to
find their treasure !---you need to read
books that might be "somehow" related. I
suggest books on: Masons, Knights Templar,
Civil War, Jesse James and Quantrill. LOTS
of clues to be collected !
In MY opinion the
two "essential" books to read and own---if
you want to learn about the KGC---are:
"SHADOW OF THE
SENTINEL" by Warren Getler and Bob Brewer
AND
"JESSE JAMES WAS
ONE OF HIS NAMES" by Del Schrader and Jesse
James III
These two books
will give you a good "working knowledge" of
the KGC.
Two more very
informational books about the KGC can be
read about at:

few of the books I have in my library:
THE HEAD OF GOD (

Laidler

FLAG by Captain Kit Dalton

GOLDEN CIRCLE, TREASON HISTORY, SONS OF
LIBERTY, 1864

Another GOOD
source of KGC info is the old issues of
TREASURE HUNTERS CONFIDENTIAL ( THC ). They
published for about ten years ( 1989-1999 )
and in their approximately 120 issues I have
found 15 articles on the KGC. Eventually I
will detail the contents of those
articles---on Page 9--MISC !
HOWARD DUFFY
wrote at least three articles on the Knights
of the Golden Circle for TREASURE magazine.
I'll also put that info on Page 9--MISC ! in
the near future.
On April 22,
1973, the LOS ANGELES HERALD EXAMINER
published a report by Del Schrader under the
headline "$100 Billion in Treasure--The
Search for Rebel Gold." If anyone has that
article---I'd like a copy, please. Thanks !
