A fun, enjoyable look at old abandoned towns that dotted the western landscape (for the most part). Many of the places featured in the book have deteriorated into nothing since the book was published in 1971 but this book gives a good photographic record of the locales.
Having some interest in cruising old graveyards, this book passed an idle moment catering to my voyeurism.
Well illustrated (B & W photos) and interesting and informative book on ghost towns of the Southwest.
