Description

Over 6,000 ghost towns have existed in the history of Kansas. Many of these were boom towns that evolved into major communities overnight, and disappeared just as fast. Some of these fascinating places were mining towns, steamboat towns, trail stops, railroad hubs, and county seat contenders. Their stories are all exciting, and many of their locations are mostly forgotten. Daniel Fitzgerald revisits over a hundred of these mysterious ghosts. Like a detective sorting through the dusty, dark corners of the state's history, he brings them back to life in his sixth and last volume of all new material. Ghost Towns of Kansas: 6 is an epic finale spanning 35 years. It is one of the longest-running and most successful Kansas history series ever created. It promises to be Fitzgerald's most exciting chapter yet.
