Laid to rest in California : a guide to the cemeteries and grave sites of the rich and famous
The authors unearth nearly a thousand intriguing characters whose legacies live on beyond the grave. Includes detailed obituaries and sepulchral photographs, as well as useful data on cemetery locations and visiting hours; availability of maps, tours, walks, and special events; and original homesteads and museums--plus tasty lunch spots located nearby. This opinionated book, full of history and amusing anecdotes, introduces you to cemeteries up and down California, with hundreds of evocative profiles giving tribute (and in some cases rebukes) to those lying below.--From publisher description
