The author researched deaths, found graveside locations, & then added his own 2 cents about famous peoples deaths. It was kind of like reading an entertainment magazine. Some good info on the famous deceased and backstory on feuding, etc. I didn't care for the authors opinion & speculation he added into a lot of the research. He wasn't around in 1867-1959 so adding his own gossip about the deceased was a turn off. The end of the book has a chapter entitled "How To Find Where Someone is Buried" which basically gives you instruction on how to lie to funeral or cemetery personnel so they'll give out famous people's plot numbers. For example, inquiring about your dear great aunt Mrs. Grace Allen (George Burn's wife) to find out where George is buried since their plots are next to each other or asking where Leonard Oswold who died in the 60's plot is & the clerk saying they have a Lee Oswold (bingo, now you know where the assassin is buried) A little underhanded & lurid.
