In the 19th century, families visited cemeteries and often had picnics there on the weekends. The Gardino's hope to bring some of that park like atmosphere back to the cemeteries. In covering the brother's favorite cemeteries and graves their aim will be to make the chapters easy to read and fun, introducing readers to unusual little known historical facts. The book will delve into the histories and biographies of noted historical personalities in prominent cemeteries on the East Coast, as well as history about the cemeteries themselves. Detailed directions based on the author's personal experiences, to the cemetery's residents, as well as the cemeteries themselves, is provided. The book also hopes to emphasize to the public how the past can be relevant to today"--
