Mr. Kinder spent HUGE amount of time to research and write a 500 page history of an historic event. And yet.......not one photo among all those pages. Nothing more then a few postage stamp size pix on back cover.

Wonderful tale - wish I could have been one of the 160 partners. Had not heard of this gold recovery- thought it was fiction at first. Well done Tommy Thompson!!

Roger Veenendaal

I had read Longitude and Latitude, also The Perfect Storm. Each time I thought it could not be topped but I do say this book Ship of Gold was fabulous from begining to end. If you have read either of the other books I mention you must read this book.

Tom Greco

Ship of Gold has been advertised as a thriller similar to Into Thin Air and Perfect Storm. Having read all three, I enjoyed Ship of Gold far more than the other two. As Kinder states on the final page it is a story of two frontiers--the gold rush of 1849 and deep sea discovery. The book's protagonist, Tommy Thompson, makes the story a most compelling read. Great writing from Gary Kinder.
