Ontario's Ghost Town Heritage by Ron Brown

Ontario's Ghost Town Heritage by Ron Brown is a fascinating guide to 80 accessible ghost towns and former communities across Ontario, combining local history, travel, photography, and practical exploration.

Drawing on Brown’s earlier ghost-town books, this volume revisits some of his most interesting destinations with updated information and images, while also introducing additional forgotten places. Some locations still have a small number of residents, while others survive only through abandoned buildings, foundations, roadways, and traces of once-busy communities.

Brown explores the stories behind these vanished towns and villages, giving readers a glimpse of the industries, railways, settlements, and changing fortunes that shaped rural Ontario. Sketch maps by the author help organize the sites by region and make the book useful for planning day trips and local history outings.

A great choice for Ontario history buffs, road-trip explorers, photographers, and anyone fascinated by abandoned places. Add Ontario's Ghost Town Heritage to your cart today. This is a one-of-a-kind used copy, so once it’s gone, it may not be available again.
