Abandoned Virginia: The Commonwealth's Forgotten Past

By Dave Bentley

Offers a photojournalistic journey through Virginia's decaying churches, schools, and businesses, exploring the forgotten history of the state's abandoned places.

Abandoned Virginia: Forgotten in Time covers abandoned and decaying churches, schools, farmhouses, and more. Explore houses that appear suddenly abandoned, schools forced to shut their doors due to declining enrollment, and once booming businesses that were forced to close shop. With so much history left behind, one question always remains: Why? This book will trace the history of Virginia through a photojournalistic approach and document some of these important places that have been left behind. Take a journey through the history of one of the original thirteen colonies and discover a behind-the-scenes look at some of these abandoned places, left to decay and be reclaimed by nature.
