Hardcover. Condition: New. Taken across Georgia, then later in Alabama, Louisiana and Mississippi, Jörg Rubbert's photographs are 'a call to action, a powerful plea for the historical legacy they document to be embraced'. With brief notes on each area's social history, the 150 or so images capture the impact of the economic downturn of the early 21st century, depicting second-hand stores and pawnshops, deserted towns and decaying buildings, but also the glory of a faded past.
