Trash or Treasure?
A look at Colonial America

(1492 - 1763)


One summer, Trey Shire decides to explore the attic of his grandparents' house.  He stumbles upon an old chest.  It looks like a picture of a pirate's treasure that he'd once seen
in a book.

Could this be his lucky day?  What if the chest is full of gold?  Maybe this is why his grandfather has always told him to stay out of the attic!  Trey decides to take a peek inside and gets more than he bargained for.
