Omschrijving
At the turn of the twentieth century, a 1901 decree ordered the exhumation and relocation of over 150,000 graves in San Francisco– the only major metropolitan city in America to order a complete eviction of its dead. City of the Dead uncovers this fascinating and forgotten section of American history.

Hamburg has written numerous articles on the fate of San Francisco’s dead, lectured, conducted tours, and contributed articles to the Cypress Lawn Heritage Foundation Newsletter. He is the author of Quotable San Francisco.
