Description
This book directs legions of fervent fans and multitudes of the morbidly curious to the graves, monuments, memorials, and tombstones of the nearly 500 celebrities and antiheroes included in the book. The most complete and well-organised guide on the subject by far, every entry features an entertaining capsule biography full of little-known facts, a detailed description of the death, and step-by-step directions to the grave, including not only the name of the cemetery but the exact location of the gravesite and how to reach it. The book also provides a handy index of grave locations organised by state, province, and country to make planning a grave-hopping road trip easy and efficient. This 2019 edition adds 15 new entries including Muhammad Ali, David Bowie, Glenn Campbell, Chris Cornell, Dear Abby, Phyllis Diller, Betty Friedan, Merle Haggard, Gordie Howe, B.K.S. Iyengar, Harper Lee, Tom Petty, Joe Strummer, Johnny Winter, and Buckwheat Zydeco.
