Editorial Reviews

From Library Journal
Another in the series that includes Permanent New Yorkers ( LJ 10/15/87) and Permanent Parisians ( LJ 6/15/86). LJ' s reviewer said the first volume was "as much fun to browse as the cemeteries themselves." This edition presents the final resting places of such Hollywood notables as Humphrey Bogart, John Huston, and the one, the only, Groucho.-- MR

2.0 out of 5 stars Don't believe everything you read..., March 16, 1999
By A Customer
I've been using Permanent Californians for roughly 7 years now;while it provides great biographical information and a decent basicguide to who has been interred where, Culbertson and Randall have failed miserably in their efforts to provide specific gravesite locations. I have wasted too much precious daylight in vain assessments of which tree they presume to be the largest within a particular cemetery section, ultimately searching around each and every tree in said section only to conclude that the book is just plain wrong. I've noted many typos with regard to section numbers/grave numbers, and had to learn the hard way *never* to trust their directions as gospel truth. Very useful as a basic reference, but be advised: don't expect much in the way of orienteering.

4.0 out of 5 stars A good resource for grave hunters, June 1, 1998
By A Customer
I loved Permanent Californians! Unfortunately, it is out of date (1989). It also doesnt have all the celebrities but it gets you around the Calfornia cemeteries and gives you an interesting history!! I would highly recommend this book to all gravehunters!!!

2.0 out of 5 stars did NOT exceed my expectations!, November 14, 2001
By A Customer
I do not normally pick up a book and hate it at first sight, but so it was with this one. At first I felt there must be something wrong with me, and tried reading it again. However, I feel obliged to say that at times the discriptions and explanations were long-winded, and his attempts at analysis were not particularly original.
