Beautiful Ferncliff is a celebration of that magnificent tranquil oasis in the middle of Springfield, Ohio—Ferncliff Cemetery & Arboretum. It is the story of how--in a midsized Midwestern town—such a remarkable example of nineteenth-century landscape architecture came into being. Lavishly illustrated, the book captures the abundance of nature's beauty at Ferncliff—and the ethereal funerary art, architecture, and intriguing cemetery symbolism that make it one of the most fascinating destinations in the city.
