Abandoned Alaska

Copper and gold prospecting townships and camps spread rapidly in the following thirty years. Far-flung glacier-side bunkhouses and angling stations dotted the wild landscape, with workers coming from all around the world to seek their fortune. The sudden closing of the Kennecott copper mine in 1938 left many of these industrial and residential structures abandoned. Leaving with only what they could carry, the miners left plates on tables and sheets on beds. Preserved by their remoteness and Alaska's harsh freezing temperatures, the sites retain many of these precious artifacts. Most still lie where they were left, almost a century ago.
Photographer Paul Scannell has spent years hiking to the region's precariously perched mountain-top copper mines and remote gold mining sites with the aim of capturing America's slowly disappearing frontier history. His fascination with dereliction and its haunting beauty grows with each new adventure. Observing nature reclaim its territory, for him, holds irresistible drama. This book maps a personal journey, driven by loss and defined by discovery and healing. It is a collection of his photographs, travel notes and observations.

John R. Harrell of Louisville, IL, far better known as "Johnny
Bob," was--rightfully or not--called all those things during his
long, colorful life. A deeply religious, independently wealthy
man, in the 1960s, Harrell was known throughout the Midwest
for his eccentric estate (which included a full-size replica of
Washington's Mt. Vernon) and the rogue Louisville-based
religious colony he founded which many labeled a "cult."
In August of 1961, U.S. federal agents stormed his Louisville
property to retrieve an AWOL Marine who had taken refuge on
Harrell's "sovereign" grounds. This military action, involving
over 100 armed officers, was national news and set off a chain
of events in the U.S. courts, in military tribunals, and eventually
across the United States as Harrell and his family became
fugitives, running from the law.
This book retraces Johnny Bob Harrell's nine decades from his
claims of an early "miracle" healing to the founding of his
religious community to the '61 siege, and Harrell's subsequent
life as fugitive, federal inmate, and right-wing provocateur.

During their first trip to Houston, they saw buildings that were not accessible in the north. It was an amazing experience to stand on top of a skyscraper overlooking the Houston skyline. That night, they decided to make a return trip, which they still plan out a few times a year. Due to excessive flooding in the south, the opportunities and abandoned buildings are constantly changing, with new things to see all the time.

9781634992930
Regular price $23.99 Save Liquid error (snippets/product-template line 248): Computation results in '-Infinity'%A lake is a body of water, but it can also be the place of community. During the 1930s, a small creek in central Illinois was dammed and flooded to provide water and power to a growing nearby city. The place was already rich with history, dotted with 10,000 years of archaeological remains, crossed by a 300-year French colonial road, and the encompassing farms and small towns frequented by a young Abraham Lincoln.
The vision for Lake Springfield included much more than a source of drinking water and power for the city of Springfield. During a nationwide depression, city planners and engineers thoughtfully created a unique municipal, recreational, and residential community along the new shores. Parks, beach houses, numerous organizational clubs, scouting camps for children, a memorial garden, a nature preserve, an outdoor theater, and even a public zoo soon skirted the 4000-acre lake. Now, eighty-five years after its construction, Lake Springfield is a community with its own rich history.

A constant battleground of morals and politics, the city has been in a downward spiral for decades. Its buildings are a reminder of its storied, and in many ways, controversial past. David Bulit, a long-time photographer and historian, guides readers through the city's lesser known history.
Abandoned Montgomery features the house on Goldthwaite, a mansion built for a U.S. marshal, located in what was once a wealthy and thriving neighborhood; the Grove Court Apartments, a complex built to fill the influx of people in the city following World War II; the Sayre Street School, a once historic school turned funeral home; Capitol City Dry Cleaners, part of a superfund site which contaminated part of the city's groundwater; the town of Spectre, a movie set used for the movie Big Fish; and much more.
