Co-published with the Association for Gravestone Studies, this is the only scholarly journal dedicated to the study of the gravestone as an art form. This volume presents eight articles on gravestone art in New England, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, and Scotland, from the 1670s to the 1960s. Featured is an illustrated guide to colonial New England gravestone carvers, along with an examination of the lives and works of some of the important figures in this relatively unexplored field. Will appeal to those interested in colonial history and folklore, as well as anthropology.
