Join author and photographer Kathleen Butler on a journey to discover the little-known history of ruins deep in the woods of Pennsylvania that can only be reached by foot. Venture along and unearth remnants of the coal mining industry, mills, railroads, and more. Explore the history that is not taught in schools. Those who only live a few miles from these ruins do not know of their existence, let alone their past. Some are from industries that fell hard when the market was no longer in their favor. They ultimately abandoned their businesses or moved elsewhere. Others tried to establish themselves only to find that the area was not suitable, thus leaving their failed community behind. Soon, these abandoned ruins will disappear into the forests of Pennsylvania forever.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you ever peered through a crack in a shuttered window or door and wondered what is hidden from view and what happened to this place? Take a journey through some of Eastern Pennsylvania's ruins and discover an evocative new way to look at history and long-neglected sites. A crumbling asylum, silent prisons, opulent theaters deserving reclamation, quiet fabric and garment mills, a rusty steel giant that once roared 24/7, an eclectic castle, a cemetery that once catered to Philadelphia's elite, a still school that was once the pride of the region, and remnants of agrarian districts are found among Eastern Pennsylvania's diverse collection of abandonments succumbing to economic and cultural shocks. Throughout this book, pictures on top of pictures emerge with stories about loss. Discover a surreal world that development has left behind, where industry collapses, or culture changes and decay take over.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scattered throughout New Jersey are remnants of history that are being reclaimed by nature or destroyed by vandals. Author and photographer, Kathleen Butler, takes the reader on a journey back through time to rediscover the little-known history of these forgotten places. Most are deep in the woods of New Jersey; one is only known to the author and is exclusive to this book. Discover ruins from iron-making industries, mills, the railroad, and more. Some of the ruins are from industries that were at their peak, but fell hard when the market was no longer in their favor. They ultimately abandoned their businesses, or they rediscovered another market and moved elsewhere. Some companies tried to establish themselves only to find that the area was not suitable, leaving their failed community behind, or simply went bankrupt. Now, nature is taking over, and soon, these abandoned ruins will disappear forever.
