Notes

The author Randy Adams draws on extensive travel and photographic work across the prairie regions, examining rural cemeteries within their broader social and historical context. The study considers the forms and meanings of grave markers, along with the traditions and local histories they reflect, and incorporates observations of the communities, individuals, and memorial practices encountered in the course of the author’s journeys.
