Ohio River Towns Of Indiana: Rivers To The Past

Author(s): Stephen Mosier
$24.99
DESCRIPTION

Taken from the Iroquois word, Oyo, meaning "The Great River," the Ohio River stretches through Indiana for over 300 miles. From Lawrenceburg in the north to Evansville in the south, the river winds through towns both rich in history and long forgotten.

The Ohio River is a border separating the northern states from the southern. While many structures from bygone eras have been maintained, others have been left to decay and fade away. With the invention of automobiles and later interstate travel, the population of some river towns dwindled as people moved to more urban areas closer to new highways.

The towns were left behind. From decaying homes to a 200-year-old courthouse, a captain's tomb overlooking the river to an old lock and dam building rotting from disuse, each structure left behind and long forgotten tells its own eerie story.
