Abandoned Mansions of the Northeast - Paperback

A celebration and memorial to beautiful, abandoned homes from the Northeastern United States.

At what point does a house become a home? Is it simply when we familiarize ourselves with it? Perhaps it's more profound than that.

In truth, a house becomes a home when we entrust it with enough memories that it knows us as well as we know it. However, this begs another question: After everyone leaves, and a house no longer has someone to watch over it, does it cease being a home? This question is not so easily answered. Unless, of course, you've personally spent time in an old house, especially one that knew generations of families. If you have, then you know the answer: Once a house becomes a home, it never forgets.

This book exists to serve as a celebration and memorial to beautiful, abandoned homes from the Northeastern United States. Some are grand in scope and scale, others intimate and personal, but all are reflections of the families which they once held dear.
