Ghost Towns and Mills of the Atlanta Area

I've written several books on ghost towns in the southwestern part of the United States, which includes Death Valley, Mojave Preserve, Nevada, Arizona and New Mexico. I decided to write a similar book on ghost towns and mills in the greater Atlanta area. There are more of them in the Atlanta area than you might think. I'm defining a "ghost town" as a place where people used to live and work, that is either now abandoned, is a "ghost of its former self," or (in a couple of instances) whose original raison d'etre is gone. A surprising number of the sites described herein are completely abandoned, and several of them are either inside the perimeter, or close by. Others are further out, into the suburbs and exurbs. There are 35 sites contained within, located in 14 counties. The books includes 115+ illustrations.
