"Der Schatz der Sierra Madre" by B. Traven is an adventure novel published in 1927. In 1920s Mexico, two destitute American drifters team up with an experienced prospector named Howard to search for gold in the remote mountains. As they pursue their fortune, Howard warns them that discovering gold in quantity corrupts men's souls and awakens insatiable greed. Dobbs insists he would be content with modest wealth, but the old prospector quietly
doubts him. Their expedition unfolds against a backdrop of exploitation, revolution, and legendary mines cursed by bloody histories. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
