The History Book That Tells You What Is Actually There Now.

Places, each on its own two-page spread

Americans read their history in what survives. But much of American history lives in the places that disappeared, and almost none of those places are marked.

This archive covers fifty of them. Every location carries a timeline, a then-and-now comparison, and a plain description of what stands on the ground today.

Questions

Before You Order

What do I get after checkout?+

The 124-page illustrated PDF is delivered instantly after purchase.

Is this a physical book?+

No. It is a digital edition for computers and tablets, and it prints cleanly at home on US Letter paper.

Does it repeat the YouTube videos?+

No. Twenty-eight of the fifty locations have no documentary. Every entry includes timelines, then-and-now information, current site details, and sources.

Is this the same as the Field Guide?+

No. The Field Guide is a trip-planning tool with coordinates and access ratings. Vanished America is a reading archive with fifty places, timelines, sources, and historical photographs.

Can I visit these places?+

Some of them. The archive explains what remains and flags places that are private, contaminated, or unsafe. It is not a trespassing guide.

Can I print it?+

Yes. You can print the book for your own use.

What if it is not for me?+

The digital archive includes a 7-day money-back guarantee.
