Summary:
With images of abandoned buildings across the United States, including factories, houses, schools, hospitals, theaters, churches, and synagogues, Holubow documents their tragic fate and reveals how slow but unforgiving wear and tear has befallen many of the country's forgotten sites. By focusing on the undeniable beauty beneath the rubble and decrepitude, he shows the erosion of important parts of our history.
