New Book Series, THE GOLD HOUSE Trilogy Brings White Sands Missile Range and the Victorio Peak Treasure to Life
by BWW News Desk
- Feb 3, 2014
When John Dean told the Senate Watergate committee about a luncheon meeting and 'an enormous amount of gold' held by clients of attorney F. Lee Bailey at White Sands Missile Range, the White House/White Sands connection was made. The authors allege documents and eyewitness testimony point to the theft of more than $1 billion during the Thanksgiving weekend in November 1973. Shortly after the theft was reported, FBI Agent Herb Greathouse was assigned to investigate. Clarence and Whittle allege that Greathouse's ostensible probe 'was used in a cover-up of the theft.' As the authors note, 'the question is whether or not Greathouse was under orders to suppress information and turn the investigation away from Nixon. If so, were the orders initialed by Nixon himself?'

Watergate: New Book Series Explores Testimony and Connection with an Ancient, Buried Treasure
by BWW News Desk
- Jul 31, 2013
John Clarence and Tom Whittle, co-authors of The Gold House trilogy, say that a 1981 article in The Investigator magazine, published by American newspaper columnist Jack Anderson, may have been the first published source to identify the role of President Lyndon Johnson in a multibillion-dollar gold theft. The article, authored by Whittle, was entitled 'The Treasure of Victorio Peak.' Whittle's sources claimed that Johnson showed a burning interest in the treasure-discovered in New Mexico in 1937 by 'Doc' and Ova Noss-and had attempted to recover it. However, Clarence contends, 'Richard Nixon was involved to a point we hear about it in the Watergate scandal.'
