Aprašymas

Inspired by cemeteries throughout Maine, Virginia, and her home state of West Virginia, author Cerridwen Greenleaf is on a mission to reintroduce forgotten names of the past. In her spare time while investigating esoteric materials in historical libraries, Cerridwen roamed graveyards on the upper east coast and fell in love with the serenity of these spaces. This experience heralded a lifelong passion of exploring these spaces and recording the beautiful names found on gravestones, the results of which are compiled within this book. From Beauregard and Gerard Kenner, to Altha and Byrd, to Vesta and Junious, these noble names need to be reintroduced in attempts to combat the overuse of Madisons and Marks, Keighlees and Kristophers. With names collected from cemeteries across North America, The Graveyard Baby Name Book is an incomparable gift for baby showers, soon-to-be parents, or even new pet owners.
