Forrest Fenn, a wealthy art dealer and Vietnam veteran, hid a treasure chest filled with gold, silver, and jewels somewhere in the Rocky Mountains. He left behind a series of cryptic clues in a poem, and for the past decade, thousands of people have searched for the treasure.

Kushner follows the stories of several of the treasure hunters, including a former Green Beret, a Vietnam veteran, and a young woman who quit her job to search for the treasure. He also interviews Fenn himself, who offers tantalizing new clues about the location of the treasure.

As the search for the treasure intensifies, the lines between obsession and madness begin to blur. Some treasure hunters have lost their jobs, their homes, and even their lives in their quest for the gold. Others have become so obsessed that they have alienated their families and friends.

But for Fenn, the treasure hunt is more than just a game. It is a way to connect with people and to share his love of the outdoors. He believes that the treasure hunt is a metaphor for life itself, and that the search for the gold is ultimately a search for meaning and purpose.

Obsession, Death, and Glory is a thrilling and thought-provoking tale of adventure, greed, and the human spirit. It is a story that will stay with you long after you finish reading it.
