The Pancho Villa Treasure of the Guadalupe Mountains — William H. White

It all began before the turn of the twentieth century when Pancho Villa and his faithful lieutenant Leonardo Regaldo took by force of arms a massive treasure stolen from the Mexican people by the despot dictator Porfirio. In the mid 1980's, the search and recovery of this treasure was to become a contest of wills between the direct descendants of Leonardo and Porfirio. Carl Webb and Jack Morgan get unwittingly entangled in this conflict and a simple treasure hunt soon becomes a deadly contest between the opposing forces. It was in the remote reaches of the Guadalupe Mountains of New Mexico where the two groups fought it out with no quarter given on either side. Will Carl Webb and Jack Morgan survive this military assault? Author William H. White now lives in rural New Mexico where he writes stories of adventure and treasure hunting when not conducting tours in the Caballo Mountains. This is the second book in the series with Carl Webb and Jack Morgan as the main characters.
