James Robert McNeal

4.9/5 (20976 ratings)

Description:Every gravestone in every graveyard can frame a story far more complex than the dates engraved upon it. It's common for spouses to be memorialized together as a final affirmation of the commitments made in life, or for bereaved parents to be buried with children who tragically preceded them in death. Close proximity burials of seemingly unrelated figures can similarly reveal the tales of people who otherwise walked together in life, by choice or by chance. This book explores a dozen unique examples of side-by-side burials over the course of U.S. history. It begins by describing each of the protagonists' final chapters, before spooling out the tales and significance of their actual journeys to such interwoven endpoints. The evolution of funerary practices in the United States is interspersed throughout, with a special focus on military honors and burials.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
