Description
Abandoned Islands takes us to some of the world's most fascinating and forgotten places. From American civil war forts to European leper colonies, and from grand mansions to colonial settlements and churches, this book explores over 180 colour photographs that reveal the reasons behind these sites' abandonment.
The locations featured in Abandoned Islands span across the globe, including islands off Alaska, Normandy, Scotland, and the Indian Ocean. The reasons for their abandonment are varied, from climate change to shifting economic forces, religious conflict, and wars disrupting daily life.
