Book Cover & Preview Text
From the lines and points of the Atomic Age and the curves and wavy swirls of the Streamlined Age to the quaint, homey terraced hotels that still sport the vintage look; to the rural, abandoned places that were once homes to people and families: these structures tell a story; share a part of life, an era, which is both personal and historical.

About the Book
Mysterious, slightly fearsome, empty and abandoned places...real structures that have fallen into disrepair and decay...long since abandoned. These pictures tell their own stories of these structures as they once were.
About the Author
Empty places hold an essence that reflects the people who once resided in them...from a different time, maybe a different era. These places have untold stories that may never be known. However, rather than just have them fall into desolation and forgetfulness, I opt to capture these unique structures in pictures and let what's left of them tell their own stories and depict their own pieces of history. I absolutely love abandoned places and try to explore them when I can. Anywhere from small two-room dwellings to huge, vacant factories or decrepit hotels...I love finding these places, noting the unique facades and imagery of certain eras that have long-since passed, and I often speculate on who lived there, who visited, who worked in these structures. It's always a mystery.
