When it was founded in 1860, Chicago's Graceland was hailed as the most
"modern" cemetery in existence and "the admiration of the world." Now
known as the "Cemetery of Architects" because so many notable ones are
buried there, Graceland remains a heavily visited attraction. This
richly illustrated book uncovers how the influential and still beautiful
landscape was developed over many generations, casting new light on the
careers of several important landscape architects.
