Seven ships filled with gold, silver, and treasures of the Church sail from Hispania to escape invading Moors in the seventh century, going westward where the wind carries them under divine guidance. The foreigners and natives settle in an area now called Chaco Canyon to establish a religious center and build seven cities of gold and silver that historians and treasure hunters still talk about and seek. The people, and their cities of gold, disappear without a trace centuries before fortune hunters come seeking the cities and the wealth they contain. Only a select few people remain to oversee the secrets of the ancient people, their treasure, and the plan for using that treasure.

Walt Disney's Uncle Scrooge
Author: Carl Barks
Publisher: Complete Carl Barks Disney Lib
ISBN: 9781606995358
Category : Humor
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Carl Barks's greatest creation: The miserly, excessively wealthy Scrooge McDuck, whose giant money bin, lucky dime, and constant wrangles with his nemeses the Beagle Boys are well-known to and beloved by young and old. This volume starts off with "Only a Poor Old Man," the defining Scrooge yarn (in fact his first big starring story) in which Scrooge's plan to hide his money in a lake goes terribly wrong. Two other long-form classics in this volume include "Tralla La La" (also known as "The Bottlecap Story," in which Scrooge's intrusion has terrible consequences for a money-less Eden) and "Back to the Klondike" (Barks disciple Don Rosa's favorite story, a crucial addition to Scrooge's early history, and famous for a censored bar brawl that was restored in later editions). Also in this volume are the full-length "The Secret of Atlantis," and over two dozen more shorter stories and one-page gags.

Seven Cities of Gold
The Mythical West
Author: Richard W. Slatta
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing USA
ISBN: 1576075885
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 475
Book Description
This cultural journey down memory lane showcases how major Western figures, events, and places have been portrayed in folk legends, art, literature, and popular culture. Ever since the days of the 49ers and George Armstrong Custer, the Old West has been America's most potent source of legend. But it is sometimes hard to separate fact from fiction. Did you know, for example, that Annie Oakley was a talented marksman who shot an estimated 40,000 rounds per year while practicing and performing for Buffalo Bill Cody's Wild West Show in the late l800s? Or that many interpreters believe that The Wonderful Wizard of Oz is not just a fairy tale, but also a Populist allegory? These are just two of the folk legends dissected and examined in this veritable cultural geography. The volume covers everything from billionaire Howard Hughes and composer Aaron Copeland to Aztlan (the legendary first city of the Aztecs) and Area 51, the top-secret U.S. Air Force base at Groom Lake, Nevada, that has fascinated UFO and conspiracy buffs.
