About This Item
Irvington-on-Hudson, New York; (1972): Harvey House. First Edition. Octavo. 191 pages. Inscribed: "Kindness regards to Dwight Weber who has a heart of gold., Oren Arnold, July 1972." Illustrated by Jimmie Ihms. A scarce book by Oren Arnold whose exploration of the Superstitions and his writing on the literature and folklore of the mountain led the governor to grant him the Distinguished Public Service Award and Phoenix proclaimed him "Man of the Year". After writing "Ghost Gold" and later "Superstition Gold", he began this work which is fiction but rooted in a firsthand knowledge of the area of the Superstitions and their inexhaustible areas still being searched. A fine copy bound in pictorial paper over boards lettering black, in a fine unclipped pictorial dust jacket.
