5.0 out of 5 stars SAVED ME DURING LOCK DOWN
Reviewed in the United States on May 6, 2020
Verified Purchase
I ordered this just before the lock down and it has literally been a saving grace of "to do & find" road trips. My mom, friend and myself have researched and planned our weekend road trips during lock down by using the knowledge and fascinating hidden treasured that is inside the book. We have researched our route and taken off for the search. The author has given wonderful directions and so much more. We all 3 recommend this wonderful book. Do like we did, take a picnic and enjoy the new adventures. We also found additional hidden treasures during our search for the book destinations.

Great photos and history of abandoned places in Georgia you may have otherwise not known about. It is largely whats on the authors public blog but I knew that going in. Its nice to have a physical copy of the pictures and history. Would buy again.

2.0 out of 5 stars Needs to re-title book
Reviewed in the United States on June 3, 2022
Verified Purchase
This book is primarily for the Atlanta area. If you in in South Ga, other than the coast, you have wasted your money. The title Abandoned Georgia: Traveling the Backroads would indicate that it covers all of Georgia; even the description does not indicate that is primarily for Atlanta, mid-Georgia and East Coast. I was very disappointed and will never buy another book by this author.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful photos and background on places you always wonder about!
Reviewed in the United States on July 16, 2019
Just got my copy about week or so ago...what a fantastic book with great photos...made even better with the informative background and history of these places. It's great that someone else (and much more talented photographer) finds these places so cool and interesting. Keep up the good work.
