Hollywood Remains to Be Seen
A Guide to the Movie Stars' Final Homes
By Mark Masek
The CemeteryGuide E-Book Series
Each e-book is a guide to a specific cemetery, and includes a detailed history of the cemetery, as well as specific, easy-to-follow, step-by-step directions to find all the notable names buried there, plus extensive personal and professional biographies for all of your favorite departed celebrities.
The advantage of an e-book is that you can have all the information you need to tour a specific cemetery, at your own pace, but you won't attract unwanted attention by carrying around a large, bulky guide book.
And if you follow the simple directions, you're certain to find whoever you're looking for. It's just like visiting the cemetery with a professional tour guide, but a whole lot cheaper.
Plus, the e-books will be updated whenever there's a new and notable addition to the cemetery, so you won't have to buy a new edition of a book. You can just download the latest version of the e-book! How cool is that?
And even if you never visit a cemetery, you'll enjoy these e-books for their historical and biographical information about your favorite celebrities. They're great for any fans of Hollywood or film history.

"... There are now sites on the Internet naming and picturing the celebrities who are buried in this (Westwood) cemetery."

very proud to be on this list.
