Explores the state's forgotten history through a visual journey of ghost towns and gold mines, blending archival and contemporary images with captivating stories.

Discover the forgotten treasures and untold tales of Idaho's past in Howard Frisk's captivating exploration, Abandoned Idaho: Ghost Towns, Gold Mines, and More. Extensively researched, this book unveils the rich history of the Gem State through a visual journey with historical black-and-white archival images followed by present-day full-color photographs of the same places.

Each photograph in Abandoned Idaho has a story behind it, and it is through these thought-provoking stories and first-hand accounts that one can find a human connection to the people that once lived, worked, played, and in some cases, died, at the places revealed in this book. Within these pages, an adventure awaits, for many of the ghost towns and abandoned mines explored in Abandoned Idaho are unknown even to Idaho's life-long residents.

The author and contributing photographers have captured the haunting beauty of decay, transporting readers to the bygone era of bustling pioneer towns, mining camps, railroads, and one-room schoolhouses that are now little more than silent echoes of the past. Through the comparison of historical and present-day photographs, the dramatic time-wrought transformations can be truly appreciated. The author offers a perfect blend of engaging storytelling and insightful historical details.
