I've written a review of a new book about pioneer graveyards, Pioneer Cemeteries: Sculpture Gardens of the Old West, by Annette Stott, for the Fall 2009 edition of "Nebraska History." Excerpts from this edition are at this link, on the Nebraska State Historical Society website. Please support the Historical Society and pick up a copy of the Fall issue, or better yet, subscribe to this excellent quarterly...and be sure to read my review. :-)
