Portland writer Johan Mathiesen, author of "Mad as the Mist and Snow: Exploring Oregon Through Its Cemeteries", will discuss Oregon's most celebrated and unique cemeteries, including Lone Fir, Jacksonville, and Willamette National. Included in the discussion will be detailed profiles that highlight unique historical events, famous residents, and the evolution of headstone designs. Mathiesen will also highlight which cemeteries around the state should be on every traveler's and historian's "must visit" list--and why. Free and open to the public.
