Part 1 Interview with author Terry Hamburg "Land of the Dead, How the West Changed Death in America"
This episode is an interview with author Terry Hamburg, who wrote a very interesting book on all things dying, death, and burial in San Francisco history. We cover the earliest history of Colma and specifically discuss one cemetery, Cypress Lawn.
This subject matter might not be for everyone, but please know I approach the discussion about the history of death and burials in San Francisco with respect and genuine curiosity. I think you’ll find it fascinating.
