Cemeteries Of Yavapai County (Images Of America) Download Free (EPUB, PDF)
Yavapai County, Arizona, is regarded as the most historically significant area within the state. After Arizona was proclaimed an American territory by Pres. Abraham Lincoln in 1863, it was here that the first territorial government was established. Yavapai County history and culture is reflected in its simple but deeply reverent burial grounds where many of Arizona's early pioneers are buried. The county has many cemeteries, and this book focuses on the most historic of these, from Prescott to Southern Yavapai ghost towns, where people ranging from Big Nose Kate to Sharlot M. Hall are interred, and examines the Old West's attitudes toward death and burial.

Very good book with great interesting information. This area is full of interesting history and this brings alot of it to light.Even if you don't live here you can share in our history.
We have visited several of these locations, both before and after purchasing this book, and we are very impressed with its accuracy.
A much bigger book is needed to cover many more, and more interesting cemeterys. For example the pioneer cemetery in Camp Verde with many unknown soldiers from the Indian and Calvert wars.
