Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On May 10, 2008, a tornado struck the northeastern Oklahoma town of Picher, destroying more than one hundred homes and killing six people. It was the final blow to a onetime boomtown already staggering under the weight of its history. The lead and zinc mining that had given birth to the town had also proven its undoing, earning Picher in 2006 the distinction of being the nation’s most toxic Superfund site. Recounting the town’s dissolution and documenting its remaining traces, Picher, Oklahoma tells the story of an unfolding ghost town. With shades of Picher’s past lives lingering at every intersection, memories of its proud history and sad decline inhere in the relics, artifacts, personal treasures, and broken structures abandoned in disaster’s wake. In Todd Stewart’s haunting photographs, faded snapshots and letters, well-worn garments, and books and toys give harrowing and elegiac testimony of constancy and dislocation. Empty buildings and bared foundations stand in silent witness to the homes, schools, churches, and businesses that once defined life in Picher. As these photographs and Alison Fields’s accompanying essays explore the otherworldly town teetering over massive sinkholes, they reveal how memory, embedded in everyday objects, can be dislocated and reframed through both chronic and acute instances of environmental trauma. Though hardly known outside the Three Corners Region of Oklahoma, Kansas, and Missouri, the fate of Picher echoes well beyond its borders. Picher, Oklahoma reflects the broader intersections of memory, time, material objects, and changing environments, demanding our attention even as it resists easy interpretation.

Book excerpt: As a kid growing up in small town Iowa, author and photographer Stephanie Bishop visited her grandparents three hours away, in even smaller town in Iowa. Every trip, her dad would try to take a new route using Iowa's backroads. She loved watching the world go by through that dusty, bug splattered windshield. Passing farm after farm, she wondered what life was like in those big, old, rambling farmhouses. Many small towns have a collection of run down, dilapidated buildings, causing one to imagine what life was like in livelier times. Many of those old treasures are gone or have crumbled beyond recognition. The ones that remain, ghosts of their former selves, are fair game for Stephanie's camera lens. Even though she has traded Iowa's rich black soil for Oklahoma's red dirt roads, she still takes the backroads searching for old, dusty, abandoned buildings that time has forgotten. Abandoned Oklahoma aims to preserve the crumbling pieces of our past so new generations can indefinitely explore and enjoy these locations, if only by turning the pages.
