ALthough this book is indead informative, with well drawn maps and locations, you should be forwarned that this book is not a book for those looking for descriptive file on said ghost towns. If you want more info on a particular ghost town, you should look into books that channel each town into it's own sub-divison. Why? Because a book that's trying to squeeze in 100 some ghsot towns will likely only tell you where it is and maybe a slight history, whereas a more detailed book(say ghost towns of Nevada) will show more insight into a particualar town. However! This book is good, and any weekend explorer will no doubt find it's maps and info very usefull, as I did. Just don't expect an elaborate history!
