Reviews
"Marked, Unmarked, Remembered is startling and extraordinary. From its images of the past as officials wish us to remember it, to those of a past that is largely unknown to us because those with power have deemed it destabilizing, to the capturing of our past as it has been reclaimed by those invested in rescuing its lessons for the present, this book is a true gift. It both unsettles our sense of who we thought we were, and it makes us see the imperative of forging a more just future for all." Heather Ann Thompson, winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Blood in the Water: The Attica Prison Uprising of 1971 and Its Legacy, "When Jacob awoke from his dream of a heavenly ladder in the Book of Genesis, he piled stones to mark the spot. We do much the same today, recognizing certain landscapes as holy or haunted, erecting markers and memorials--piling stones--to conjure or contain their uncanny power. In this quietly moving book, Andrew and Alex Lichtenstein examine some of America's haunted landscapes, offering a meditation on history, catastrophe, and the wages of memory and forgetting." James T. Campbell, author of Middle Passages: African American Journeys to Africa, 1787-2005, "A remarkable and essential work of visual documentary history of interest to the scholarly and general reader alike." Publishers Weekly (starred review), "When Jacob awoke from his dream of a heavenly ladder in the Book of Genesis, he piled stones to mark the spot. We do much the same today, recognizing certain landscapes as holy or haunted, erecting markers and memorials--piling stones--to conjure or contain their uncanny power. In this quietly moving book, Andrew and Alex Lichtenstein examine some of America's haunted landscapes, offering a meditation on history, catastrophe, and the wages of memory and forgetting."

Campbell, author of Middle Passages: African American Journeys to Africa, 1787-2005 , "Photographer Andrew Lichtenstein has said that 'acknowledgment is the first step towards healing.' In his powerful work, which explores places of historic--and often forgotten--conflict and trauma, he does more than acknowledge. He testifies. He testifies to the past, to the present, to the pains that have broken us--and most of all, to the humanity that defines us. He is setting us on a badly needed path of healing." Sara Terry, Founder and Director, The Aftermath Project, "Photographer Andrew Lichtenstein has said that 'acknowledgment is the first step towards healing.' In his powerful work, which explores places of historic--and often forgotten--conflict and trauma, he does more than acknowledge. He testifies. He testifies to the past, to the present, to the pains that have broken us--and most of all, to the humanity that defines us. He is setting us on a badly needed path of healing." --Sara Terry, Founder and Director, The Aftermath Project , "A thought-provoking addition to the literature on sites of public memory, complementing titles such as Kenneth Foote's Shadowed Ground." Library Journal, "Andrew Lichtenstein sees history all around, even when it's not evident at first glance. A pastoral, sun-drenched Mississippi cotton field turns out to be where Emmett Till was murdered. A tranquil suburban subdivision was the site of untold suffering in 1838, when Cherokee Indians had to endure a brutal winter as the government forced them westward on the Trail of Tears. He admits that making pictures of seemingly-ordinary places where tragedy, conflict or rebellion took place isn't easy. But as has been seen in recent weeks, there has been a growing movement to not just remove memorials honoring Confederate generals but to make sure the counter-narrative is recognized and heard. That sentiment informs his coming book, Marked, Unmarked, Remembered: A Geography of American Memory , which will be published in October by the West Virginia University Press." New York Times Lens Blog, "Marked, Unmarked, Remembered is startling and extraordinary.

Heather Ann Thompson, winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Blood in the Water: The Attica Prison Uprising of 1971 and Its Legacy, "There's an eerie silence that permeates throughout Andrew Lichtenstein's photographs taken at the sites of racial tragedies in the US. These are places where blood was spilled and unspeakable horrors inflicted, the consequences of which we are still grappling with today." --Gabriel H. Sanchez, photo essay editor, BuzzFeed News
