Many of Mississippi's landmark buildings have been lost over the years, victims of war, fire, neglect, or decay. Sprawling Gulf Coast hotels rose, prospered and disappeared. Spas overflowed for decades with revelers, then vanished as their "healing waters" lost their cachet. Huge college buildings were pressed into service as Civil War hospitals, and were destroyed in the process. "Lost Landmarks of Mississippi" reviews dozens of these forgotten buildings, capturing their beauty in rare black-and-white photographs and telling the stories of their place in Mississippi history.
