BK-25-537 Abandoned Coal Towns of Southern West Virginia

$23.99

Abandoned Coal Towns of Southern West Virginia

Abandoned buildings provide us with a look at the past. Often these structures are all that’s left of the history of a bygone era.

The images within these pages will help tell the story of forgotten coal towns of West Virginia and provide a way for others to explore them before they are demolished or reclaimed by nature.

Take a visual journey through these abandoned towns with photographer Michael Justice. If you’ve ever seen a building and wanted to explore but didn’t have the time or lacked personal safety equipment (these places are dangerous and caution should be used), this book is for you.

While the buildings are abandoned, there are signs of life. No buildings were harmed in the making of this book.”

Softbound, 96 pages
