Travel with Gordon Goldsborough from Rapid City School to Mallard Lodge to Union Stockyards and many places in between as the author helps us reclaim some of our long-lost heritage. This full colour, richly illustrated book looks at abandoned sites around Manitoba, describing their features, what caused them to be abandoned, and what they will tell us about the history of the province.

Gordon Goldsborough is an aquatic ecologist in the Department of Biological Sciences at the University of Manitoba, and a former director of the Delta Marsh Field Station. An active member of the Manitoba Historical Society, Goldsborough has written two previous books and is presently doing a weekly radio series on CBC entitled "Abandoned Manitoba".
