The Jesuit Gold: Secrets of the New World

Explores the legend of Jesuit gold hidden across the New World after the order's expulsion from Spanish territories. Covers the rise and fall of the Jesuit missions, the historical basis for buried treasure claims, the golden age of Jesuit treasure hunting, modern-day seekers, scientific insights into likely locations, and the psychology of the treasure hunt.

When the Jesuits were expelled from the Spanish colonies in 1767, they allegedly buried or shipped vast quantities of gold and silver rather than let it fall into royal hands. This book separates documented history from wishful thinking, tracing the routes and records that might still lead to Jesuit caches.
