[History Hounds] Michigan’s Pompeii: The Lost Town of Singapore with Janet Kasic, Travel Talk Journeys

Did you know Michigan has its own “Pompeii”? Just as the Roman city of Pompeii, Italy, was buried by ash and volcanic rock from Mount Vesuvius, so the little village of Singapore, Michigan, was buried by sand. Beneath the dunes near the resort town of Saugatuck lies the remains of Singapore, one of Michigan's most famous ghost towns.
