Step into the captivating world of Idaho's forgotten past with Howard Frisk's Ghost Towns of Western Idaho. This engaging book takes you on a visual and historical journey through the abandoned remnants of northern and western Idaho's once-thriving boom towns and mining camps.
Immerse yourself in the stunning visuals as the book presents present-day color photographs and evocative black-and-white historical images. Witnessing the dramatic disintegration portrayed in photographs of the same places taken 100 years apart makes you wonder what happened. What was it that drew throngs of hardy individuals to these remote towns and then what drove them away, causing them to leave everything they built behind?
Ghost Towns of Western Idaho is not just an interesting book; it's an exploration into the heart of Idaho's almost-forgotten past. Whether you're a history enthusiast, an avid photographer, or simply curious about the untold tales of the Gem State, Ghost Towns of Western Idaho offers a unique and immersive experience. This book is a must-read for anyone seeking to uncover the legacy of Idaho's abandoned towns.
