Has it been found?

     The book development is moving along.  The book is still in the edit phase and should  be ready for press just after the first of the year.  I had hoped to have everything done by the end of this year, but things have a way of changing plans.
     Many treasure hunters still search after the elusive Swift treasure even today.  Some have claimed to have found it and others claim to know where it is located.  I have never been convinced, yet, that anyone has actually found the treasure. On the other hand, if someone had made the actual discovery, would they tell about it?  Writing about this wonderful story has been a great project.  Most all locations mentioned in the book are actual places.  There are still other landmarks, such as the half moon pictured here, that have been mentioned in some versions of the Swift Journal that are not included in this story. Though historians may slightly be upset at the liberty I have taken with historical characters, I believe the reader will see and understand that the alternative historic scenarios create an exciting and adventurous novel.
     In future posts, I plan introduce you to some of the main characters and some adventures outside the realm of the book.
