Rating: Summary: At the top of the list! Review: A very handsome book which ranks Glover at the top of the list along with Kollenborn and Blair. You have to read this one if you want to know where Lost Dutchman/ Jacob Waltz research stands today. ...Glover also presents new maps, points to physical clues in the Superstitions, and hints at some of the information that has until now been the exclusive property of eccentric "Dutch hunters." Doug Stewart, Web Master Tale of the Lost Dutchman Bibliography, Notes and Chronolgy
Rating: Summary: Simply the best Review: Being a native of Phoenix I have been exposed to many book on this subject and this is by far the best. Mr. Glover has truly "done his homework." Most dutchman books simply offer a collection of facts with very little analysis. Mr. Glover offers in depth study with a personal feel. His analyses are well thought out and even offer some new information. This should be the cornerstone in the library of any true dutch hunter. It is also sure to get the blood flowing of even the most skeptical person.

Rating: Summary: Dutchers Dream Review: Dr. Glover is obviously a very well educated man but he treats the reader like a friend with side remarks that both teach and amuse. He gives facts and then substantiates them. I have read many books about this "Lost Mine" and this one is hands down better than any of the others. In fact I am sorry I didn't have all of his facts years ago but now I am too old and not in good enough shape to listen to the blood raceing to once again face those forminable mountains. I know from whence he speaks and his account of a storm recalled a like experence and I laughed out loud at his remarkable desent and can understand what made his move so quickly. If you like mysteries and true adventures read this book. I only gave it four starts because I have never read a five star book! Thank you Dr. Glover!
Rating: Summary: Der Deutsche Mensch Review: The book is well written and balances the Lost Dutchman historical review with critical comparisons of what is likely to be true or myth. This book should be one of the earlier books you read regarding the Lost Dutchman so you have a more critical eye to avoid the myth-based books that have little historical documentation supporting "stated fact." The historical references to the characters in Arizona through Waltz's life and following with Lost Duchman hunters are wonderful. The Lost Dutchman, if and when it is found, will prove to be either a lucky accident or the effort of an eccentric detailer that was within ten feet of the mine and recognized something that was different with the surroundings.
