The Tilley Treasure

Buried treasure! The words quicken the pulse and excite the imagination. Banish your thoughts of gold left behind by early Spanish explorers or of hidden loot from a Jesse James' train robbery. This story concerns a Pulaski County, Missouri farmer who lived during the turbulent era of the American Civil War. The book records a true account of his family and the silver treasure he buried in a desperate
attempt to retain possession.
