Foreign Book - The Lost Towns & Roads of America Author: J.R. Humphreys Collection: ISBN: Release Date: 1961 Pages: Hard Cover Language: English Condition: Good Publisher: Doubleday & Company, Inc. Literary Genre: The work documents a road trip across the United States, starting in New Jersey and heading toward the Midwest and Southwest, finally ending in California. The author’s primary focus is to avoid the modern, impersonal interstate highways of the era—which were rapidly expanding in the post-war period—and instead travel along backroads and old routes. Along the way, Humphreys discovers and records timeless towns, forgotten settlements, and isolated communities that were left "frozen in time" after being bypassed by progress and new transportation routes. Key Details Historical Photography: The book serves as a significant visual and historical record, featuring 96 pages of black-and-white photographs taken by the author himself. These images immortalize a rural and traditional "Americana" just before it disappeared completely due to modernization. Perspective: It is a nostalgic, melancholic, and documentary reading about the rustic beauty, desert paths, and cultural value of forgotten heritage in the interior of the United States. sem marca, é um livro.
