About the Book
By Roxie J Zwicker
Vermont ’ s hills hold the echoes of a spirited past . Haunting stories and wandering ghosts are found in numerous burial places from the Riverside Cemetery in Burlington to the Green Mount Cemetery in Montpelier . The Bowman mausoleum in Cuttingsville contains some heartbreaking symbolism . Throughout the state , disturbing tales of mountain madness , murder , and “ vampires ” can be found carved in stone . Discover the graves of humble farmers with independent spirit like Justin Morgan , Ethan Allen , and “ Snowflake ” Bentley who changed the course of history . The ancient gravestones in Rockingham were once removed and put on exhibit in New York City , while innovative gravestone carvers from Barre to Bennington left artistic interpretations of death to awe and inspire . Author and tour guide Roxie Zwicker explores these historic and legendary graveyards .
