Handsomely set forth on the following pages are 81 duotone, black-and-white photographs with 10 double-page spreads that evoke the character of this stunning place." "Richard Reisem is a Rochester resident and the cemetery's unofficial historian. He has written two books about the history of the cemetery. The photographs in both books were taken by the late Frank Gillespie. Reisem has written more than a dozen other books covering Rochester and New York state history and architecture. He is a trustee of the Friends of Mount Hope Cemetery and sometimes provides guided tours." "Mount Hope Cemetery in Rochester, New York, founded in 1838, is the United States' first municipal rural cemetery. Situated on 196 acres (793,000 m²) (0.3 square miles) of land adjacent to the University of Rochester on Mount Hope Avenue, the cemetery is the permanent resting place of over 350,000 people. The annual growth rate of this cemetery is 500-600 burials per year.
