"One of Chicago's landmark attractions, Graceland Cemetery chronicles the city's sprawling history through the stories of its people. Local historian and Graceland tour guide Adam Selzer presents ten walking tours covering almost the entirety of the cemetery grounds. While nodding to Graceland's famous figures, Selzer also leads readers past the vaults, obelisks, and other markers that call attention to less recognized Chicagoans like: Jewel Lafontant-Mankarious, the first Black woman shortlisted for the United States Supreme Court; Engineer and architect Fazlur Khan, the Bangladeshi American who revived the city's skyscraper culture; The still-mysterious Kate Warn, the United States' first female private detective; Cough syrup mogul Peter Fahrney, whose alcohol-rich product became a Prohibition favorite. Filled with photographs and including detailed maps of each tour route, Graceland Cemetery is an insider's guide to one of Chicago's great outdoor destinations for city lore and history"--
