You can take the girl out of the graveyard, but you can’t take the graveyard out of the girl. Loren Rhoads stumbled unexpectedly into a cemetery in Ann Arbor, Michigan in the 1980s. That led her to explore burial grounds from the California Gold Country to Paris, Rome, Barcelona, Singapore, Tokyo, and beyond. Whether uncovering history, searching for celebrities, chasing ghosts, or facing the reality of death, Loren invites you along on her adventures. This cemetery memoir—part travel memoir, part cemetery history—contains 35 graveyard travel essays that visit more than 50 burial grounds, churchyards, and gravesites around the globe.
