Book Description
In abandoned and forlorn places, there are clues to our past. Beaver County was once home to enormous industrial plants, deep coal and clay mines, productive farms, and many more people than today. All along the two rivers, huge contributions to our national pride and economy were made. In the last half-century, those factories have shuttered, the mines have dried up, some farms have been swallowed by forest, and a lot of people have left. Among the many sites in this book are brick manufacturers, a chemical company, empty docks, abandoned roads, crumbling houses, and decrepit railroad bridges. Beaver County is home to some of the most stunning abandoned landscapes in Western Pennsylvania. By exploring these places, we can get closer to the people who came before us and the world they built.

Pages : 136
Book Description
During Beaver Falls' first 150 years, residents of the town built it into a self-supporting community committed to family values. Initially known as Brighton before its incorporation, after it became Beaver Falls, the town saw extensive industrial development, and the city was described as "one of the most well-established manufacturing towns in western Pennsylvania." Carefully preserved images from the Beaver Falls Historical Society are combined with revealing and informative text, and this fascinating history includes some of the homes and businesses of early Beaver Falls families, as well as the railroad, canal, and river that connected the town to the rest of the state. Newly discovered images and sources of the community's history make this book a rare and timeless keepsake.
