Colorado's Lost Gold Mines and Buried Treasure (1961) by Caroline Bancroft
This book contains over two dozen myths and legends.
Entertaining, plausible, and each story contains a little tragedy.
For example, one old timer marked the location of his treasure by driving a knife into a tree. Then the forest burned down and the location was lost. He spent the rest of his life pathetically digging in the area. Heh.
Well worth reading as long as a person does not take them too seriously.
