What Happened To The Legendary Missing Fortune Of Captain Kidd?

Forensic investigator Scott Walter tracks the trail of Captain Kidd’s lost fortune. From the 17th-century jail cells of Boston to the crumbling mansions of the Astor family, we investigate if America’s first millionaire discovered a pirate's hoard. Featuring exclusive access to Kidd’s personal treasure chest and the original trial documents, we reveal the truth behind the man who was hanged three times and the cursed legacy he left behind. Is the treasure still hidden in Maine, or was it the secret fuel for an American empire? You can now become a History Hit member right here on YouTube!
