Book Overview
Memorable tombstones, colorful characters and ghostly phenomena.
Portland's historic cemeteries are some of the most beautiful and overlooked cultural treasures in the city. Full of fascinating secrets and eerie tales, these greenspaces are also the perfect spot for walking, biking and birding. Explore 25 burial grounds with public art in the form of remarkable tombstones that vary as much as the Portlanders they commemorate, including suffragists, spiritualists, Romani kings, politicians and murderers. From a photographer who captured the Golden Age of Broadway musicals to a celebrity orangutan, Portland's graves are full of surprises.
Come along with cemetery sleuths Teresa Bergen and Heide Davis as they share their insights into the Rose City's remarkable past.
