520    "In 1831 a new entity appeared on the American landscape: 
       the garden cemetery. Meant to be places where the living 
       could enjoy peace, tranquility and beauty, as well as to 
       provide a final resting place for the dead, the garden 
       cemeteries would forever change the culture of death and 
       burial in the United States. Historian T.I. Scee takes 
       readers on a historical tour of many of the region's 
       cemeteries, exploring the landscape architecture, the 
       stunning beauty, and delving into the rich history of both
       the sites and of those who are buried there."--|cProvided
