The Search for Idaho's Civil War Treasure

Who would have believed that a simple family history would evolve into a tale of secret societies, complex Freemason and Templar codes, strange symbols and tales of buried treasure?
However, as the McMahan family odyssey unfolds, it appears certain that deprivations and hardship during and after America's Civil War created a parallel story that began in war-torn Missouri and ended in the mountains of central Idaho.
After recalling childhood stories about a lost gold mine in the Central Idaho Mountains and finding markings on one of his grandfather's old maps and strange messages in even older family photos, Brian was able to locate and photograph signs, symbols, directional pointers and carvings high in the mountains. While quite old, they are virtually identical to those shown and described in many books and articles revealing the dark purpose of America's most secretive society- the Knights of the Golden Circle.
This book begins as a history of the Idaho McMahans' travels from Ireland to Missouri, and eventually, to a remote area in the Idaho mountains. But it ultimately reveals what has been discovered and what potentially still remains of a KGC cache of Confederate treasure in the Idaho mountains. Recent discoveries during the past year have generated an even deeper commitment to continuing the search...but they have also created greater apprehension.
