Sale price$4.50

Description

On September 5, 1856 - in an era when "Steamboat A-coming" was a common and welcome cry heard on the banks of emerging river towns - the "Great White Arabia", burdened with the hopes and dreams of 130 passengers and 200 tons of precious westbound supplies, was impaled by a tree snag and swallowed up by the mighty current of the Missouri River.  As time passed, the Missouri's meandering current shifted the river channel northward. The Arabia was left far behind...lost, but not forgotten.  

In 1988, five remarkable families embarked on a momentous journey back in time.  Follow the miraculous discovery made by these unlikely heroes who dared to turn a Kansas cornfield into a treasure hunter's dream.  Share their overwhelming struggles and relive the breathtaking triumphs as they battled to unlock the secrets of the Steamboat Arabia.  Their story is inspirational; their find is beyond belief.
