<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>A lost journal from the Gold Rush era reveals scattered treasures from sea to shining sea (and deep beneath them as well). Legends tell of explorers who harnessed ship and beast and rail to lay hold their dreams on a merciless frontier. One man lived long enough to record the greatest history never told... until now. Join the rush!<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>In 2013, Jack Dublin and family traveled to the Grand Canyon for a week of whitewater rafting. When a monsoon rolled in, forcing them to higher ground, they sheltered in a cave unseen for nearly 150 years. Inside they found several journals from the time of the Gold Rush that revealed scattered treasures of the ages from sea to shining sea (and deep beneath them as well). The legends tell of explorers who harnessed ship and beast and rail to lay hold their dreams on a merciless frontier; exploits that elevated ordinary men into heroes, and the undoings that destroyed the rest. One man lived long enough to record the greatest history never told... until now.</p><p>-</p><p>In <strong><em>The Lost and Found Journal of a Miner 49er, Vol. 1</em></strong>, Jack Dublin charms us into a world of Christian-themed folk lore stretching from the outback of Australia to the Island of California. Along the way, we encounter mythical creatures, from wish-granting mermaids and red-haired giants, to talking coyotes and a dreadful Canyon Sphinx. We relive exploits of powerful rulers and infamous outlaws who (though their names be lost to history) entangle themselves in our memories with the likes of Abe Lincoln and Billy the Kid. Join the rush!</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"If you are looking to get lost in a fantasy world that is imaginative as well as expertly created then this book is for you!
