Author Description

In "A Modern Treasure Hunter: The Adventures of a Gold Diviner on the Trail of Pirate Treasure," the greatest treasure hunter of the 20th century, H.T. Wilkins, tells the story of a fellow treasure hunter, Paddy Nolan, who was well-known to radio listeners in the U.S. and Canada. Nolan, a descendant of Buffalo Bill Cody, lived a remarkable life, similar to that of his ancestor - but even stranger. Nolan was a provincial constable tasked with stopping the sabotage of war factories during WWII - a job that unexpectedly led him to the hiding places of much pirate treasure.
