Rural Cemetery Movement

The Rural Cemetery Movement: Places of Paradox in Nineteenth-Century America provides a cultural history of cemeteries and their changing role from the 1830s through the early twentieth century. Jeffrey Smith examines how cemeteries became places for leisure, communing with nature, and crafting collective memory and analyzes how they served as prototypes for urban planning and city parks.
