The Book of Bauer: Stories from a Forgotten Town

first edition Paperback

2024 · Salt Lake City, UT

by Lottridge, Stephen S.

Salt Lake City, UT: The University of Utah Press, 2024. First edition. Paperback. New. 142pp. Octavo [21.5cm]. Illustrated wraps. "Graffiti-covered industrial concrete ruins are all that remain today to remind us of the lives, adventures, and human relationships that once animated Bauer, Utah. Located just south of Tooele, across the Oquirrh Mountains west of the Salt Lake Valley, Bauer was abandoned in 1979 and declared a toxic waste site. 'The Book of Bauer: Stories from a Forgotten Town' brings it back to life, evoking mid-twentieth century family and community in that company town as seen through the eyes of an observant adolescent boy.
