LDM-BOOKS ON THE SUBJECT
Hi Mike,
There's plenty of LDM legend to go around. Good luck putting the pieces together - you might just be the one to make the critical connection! The only difference between you doing research there in Illinois and us going into the mountains here is that we get to enjoy the scenery in the Superstitions. It's not like any of us has found the mine yet!
If you haven't already read them, check out Tom Glover's books on the LDM, especially volume 1. Robert Sikorsky's book "Quest for the Dutchman's Gold" is also a lot of fun. And of course "Killer Mountains" by Curt Gentry. And finally, join the Superstition Mountain Historical Society to keep a direct connection to the mountains. Just because you live in Illinois doesn't mean you can't be a part of the LDM adventure!
