Can Scrooge McDuck hold onto an awesome lost treasure — when it’s meant for non-greedy Ducks only?

Scrooge McDuck wants to find the treasure of King Duckapulco, an ancient ruler of a pre-Columbian South American empire. But the King’s ghost demands his vast wealth go only to the pure of heart. Is that why Scrooge and Donald are bringing Huey, Dewey, and Louie along? Beyond “King of the Golden River,” this collection of stories, in English for the first time, includes “Me, Myself, and Why” — in which Scrooge adopts two aliases to confuse the taxman — only to develop a real split personality! Plus: The Wild West saga of “Mickey the Kid and Six-Shot Goofy!”

About the Author

Italian comics maestro Giovan Battista Carpi (1927-1999) was famous for wild Disney adventures inspired by history and legend—including the “Mickey the Kid” Wild West subseries and dozens of beloved literature and movie send-ups.

Italian writer Guido Martina (1906–1991) was also a documentarist and a teacher.

Born in Palmanova, Rodolfo Cimino (1927-2012) assisted Romano Scarpa and, in 1961, Cimino became a Disney comics writer. After a departure in the 1970s and '80s to serve in politics - at one point, he was the Vice President of the Venice province — Cimino returned to Disney, focusing on Scrooge stories.
