Book from 1906

[Dirt_Hunter]

Hey guys, this was given to me along with boxes of other books from my neighbor about three years ago. I remember reading through all the books and loving them, but I never thought to check the age. So, I began checking the dates on all my books I found one from 1942, and found two from the 1920s and then I found this.





To me this book proves that not all treasure is found with a detector. Some lies right under our noses.
Cheers!

Zane Grey!

It's been a heck of a long time since I've heard that name!

It is a nice old book. If your into old books, you should check estate sales in your area. Around my parts, I find books from the late 1800's all the time. And they dont cost an arm and a leg.

Nice find, have your read it yet, it is a good read.

No dust cover. And yes I remember it as being a very good read.
