Some towns vanish from the map. Others just grow quiet. Travel across Ohio's forgotten corners with author Grace Holloway in this haunting, beautifully written exploration of the places time tried to erase. From drowned villages beneath man-made lakes to crumbling farmhouses that still breathe with memory, Hidden Towns of Ohio reveals a landscape rich with echoes-stories that linger in the silence, waiting to be heard. Through vivid prose and careful research, Holloway traces the lost highways, shuttered schools, and ghost-light main streets that shaped the Buckeye State's hidden history. Each chapter uncovers a different kind of endurance: bridges that outlasted the towns they served, houses that remember their families long after they're gone, and communities that slipped from view but never completely disappeared. Part history, part travel narrative, and part meditation on memory, Hidden Towns of Ohio reminds us that disappearance is rarely final-and that every forgotten place still has a heartbeat. Perfect for readers who love:Small-town and Americana history Abandoned places, ghost towns, and forgotten architecture Reflective travel writing in the tradition of Annie Dillard, Wendell Berry, or Robert Macfarlane Stories that find beauty and hope in what remains Grace Holloway's writing brings together the intimacy of memoir and the insight of history, creating a portrait of Ohio as both place and memory-a living map drawn in quiet persistence. Because even the towns that disappear still remember how to speak.
