Good in Good jacket. Size: 4to-over 9? "-12" tall; Type: Ex-Library First Edition. Hardcover Ex-Library Book and Dust Jacket in Good Condition. Eerie relics of a past American West--cassic skeleton ghost towns and boom towns like Sheridan, Kansas, which utterly vanished and Colorado's Central City, which survives today as a tourist attraction. with more than 140 archival and contemporary photographs and colorful anecdotes. Tom Robinson tells the story of the economic forces that bred these towns and that brought them down; he tells of the men and women who lived in them and the legends they inspired. Boom towns were created by the desire to get rich quick--gold, silver, railroaders--and wide open spaces for building--and the building was extravagant in the extreme-restuarants, -saloons, banks, newspaper offices, churches, livery stables--even though deep-down many knew much of it was illusory and would not last. The book is solid, and clean, unmarked xecept usual library marks, brown cloth binding with wear to corners and lower edges, internals are spotless, clean and unmarked. 128 pages with index. 9.5 x 12 inches. 1993, Courage Books/Running Press Book Publishers, Philadelphia, PA.
