Civic pride -- Faith, hope & charity -- House & home -- Commerce & industry -- Travel & transportation -- Fun & fantasy -- Urban amenities.This photographic tour is a tribute to the vanishing landscape of America's architectural heritage. Nearly 300 images include outstanding bridges, courthouses, churches, homes, and buildings east of the Mississippi, many of them now demolished. In addition to honoring the past, this is also a warning to preserve the places that define the American sense of place and identity
