Paperback. Condition: New. This book relates the stories and describes the memorials of the people buried in Shelby, North Carolina's historic Sunset Cemetery, a microcosm of the Southeastern United States. The authors, an academic and a journalist, detail the lives and memories of people who are buried here, from Civil War soldiers to those who created the Jim Crow South and promoted the narrative of the Lost Cause.

Cemeteries are sacred places where artistry and memory meet--to understand, we need both the tales and the tombstones.…
