Fallen homes

D and I have been glued to PBS watching to Ken Burns' Civil War. Although, this is the second time we have watched it, it is heart-breaking and fascinating. Begging Matt and Bri to sit down and watch it with us.

Nell Dickerson's book 'Gone, A Photographic Plea for Preservation'. A book of fallen homes of the Civil War period. Via Gun & Garden.

I just saw this book the other day which is along the same lines...beautiful, but very sad: http://www.amazon.com/Ruin-Photographs-Brian-Vanden-Brink/dp/0892727934/ref=pd_sim_b_5#_

Do you ever make it to Peter Miller's bookstore on 1st Ave. downtown? I could waste hours in there.
